Elina Svitolina has just defeated Coco Gauff to win the WTA Roma for the third time in her career. Moreover, she has not done it in any way, as on her path to the title she has defeated three top 5 players such as Elena Rybakina, Iga Swiatek, and Gauff herself. This makes her the oldest player (31 years and 235 days) to achieve such a feat, surpassing a true legend like Serena Williams.
31, 235 - Since the Tier format's introduction in 1990, Elina Svitolina (31 years 235) is now the oldest player to claim three WTA top five wins at a single event, surpassing Serena Williams (Miami 2013). Deserved.#IBI26 | @InteBNLdItalia @WTA pic.twitter.com/8hcgWRbn2L
