Well, Top 5 for Sakkari would really be crazy given she's won a grand total of 1 WTA title so far. She's not that good but WTA is a mess right now anyway.

 

:BRA Beatriz Haddad Maia bounced #1 seed Karolina Pliskova just minutes ago. Haddad Maia is back after doping suspension and profited from LL spot in MD. And she's into R4 of Indian Wells! Defending 2019 champion Bianca Andreescu is out after losing to Anett Kontaveit. The fall from grace continues and Andreescu's 2019 season appears to be a complete flash in the pan.

You forget that Kournikova was top 8 without any title, and Sakkari had a great year this year, she made two slam semis, Miami semis, and several 500 tournament semis/final

 

Also I really hope Pavlyuchenkova can make the top 10 but it looks like Jabeur will get there before her

Good win for Stefanos, the Italian is always complaining and acting in a rude and disrespectful way, I would not give his comments much importance if I were Stefanos.

 

 

Is Jabeur the first Arab woman to make the top 10? I guess so. I know she is not the first African though.

Before Jabeur only one Arab woman made WTA Top 100 - :TUN Selima Sfar. Mayar Sherif has since joined them as the third one. Unlike ATP, Morocco hasn't produced any noteworthy female players over the years (they seemingly have Tunisia instead).

 

:RSA Amanda Coetzer (CH #3) is the highest ranked female player from Africa ever (in singles). There were more in doubles (Ilana Kloss, Liezel Huber and Cara Black were all #1 in doubles).

Ons is the 1st ever Arab tennis player to reach top 10 weather in ATP or WTA , she also right now is the 8th qualifier for WTA finals and has taken Naomi Osaka Spot another piece of history would be written by this girl who is still being coached by a Tunisian coach

    • Yep, you can see Carnicelli's time included in the official results: https://gdm2022-pdf.microplustimingservices.com/ATH/2022-07-01/ATHWMARATHON----------FNL---------__C73A_1.0.pdf   Background: https://www.infobae.com/aroundtherings/articles/2022/07/01/vatican-city-primed-for-debut-at-mediterranean-games/   More info: https://www.infobae.com/aroundtherings/articles/2022/07/05/after-mediterranean-games-vatican-goal-is-to-take-part-in-international-sport-with-some-significance-beyond-the-pure-competition/   They've also sent a cyclist to the world championships on more than one occasion in recent years, and continue to compete in some regional athletics meets. 
    • (Wow! I didn't know Vatican had ever sent any athletes anywhere.  That's cool!
    • Quite surprised that the  ladies beat !   (I also was shocked at the  loss.)
    • Nope, this is great!  Thanks!
    • This is a wanted behaviour so that in desktop the space is better optimized, while in mobile its shorter. Did you have something else in your mind on how to fix the issue?
    • Yes, though it is weird that on my laptop, I see the shooting logo on both sides of the word...but on my mobile, the graphic only shows to the left of the word (and can't even swipe to see). But the issue of the banner going off screen is fixed.
    • Would a page like this fix that issue? (ignore the format, just check if that issue would be solved).
    • did send one athlete to the last edition, but she was only allowed to compete as a "guest" since they don't yet have an NOC.
    • https://totallympics.com/qualification-tracker/los-angeles-2028/qualification-by-sport/archery/qualification-tracker-r3171/   @Sindo This one for instance.  I also put screenshots in my earlier post to show you.
