Elina Svitolina turned professional in 2010 and has won 20 WTA Tour singles titles, reaching a career high of No. 3 and standing at No. 9 in the 2026 rankings.
Who is Svitolina
Elina Svitolina made her professional start in 2010, and within a few seasons she was collecting WTA singles trophies at a rate few of her peers could match. Twenty tour-level titles followed, a haul that places her among the most consistent competitors of her generation, even though a Grand Slam singles crown has stayed out of reach. She has climbed as high as No. 3 in the world and her standing as of 3 August 2026 is No. 9, meaning she remains in the top ten more than a decade after her debut. Guided now by coach Andrew Bettles, she is preparing for a season that will test her consistency, fitness and ability to close out the biggest weeks once again.
