Elena Rybakina
A well-known Russian journalist claims that the former coach of the Kazakhstani subjected her to tremendous psychological pressure, resulting in a break-up... and an unofficial stress-related leave.
The news reached us through the US Open website. Right there, it can be seen that Elena Rybakina withdrew unexpectedly before her second-round match against Jessika Ponchet. There is still no official confirmation, she has not spoken out, and the reason has not been revealed. However, physical problems and illnesses have surrounded the Kazakh player in recent times.

Elena Rybakina has not played a professional tournament since retiring in the second round of the last US Open in a match against Ponchet that never started. So, it's no surprise that two months later, there are many doubts about whether we will see her competing in the WTA Finals starting in just a week. At this point, the answer seems to be positive after the confirmation of her new team – she parted ways with Stefano Vukov – and seeing her training in Dubai with Simona Halep in recent days. It's clear that the Kazakh player won't arrive with much match practice or confidence, but she won't miss the appointment in Riyadh where she has earned the right to be after another great season.

A halo of mystery hovers over Elena Rybakina's current situation since she withdrew from the US Open 2024 in the second round and announced the end of her long-standing coaching relationship. The Kazakh player did not fully explain what was happening, leading to growing rumors and concerns as she will not be competing in the WTA 1000 Beijing 2024, citing a back injury as the reason. She will lose 390 points in the WTA ranking and could drop several positions.

Elena Rybakina is not the most communicative and charismatic player on the circuit, as she has demonstrated on several occasions. Her press conferences do not usually offer big headlines, and at Wimbledon 2024, she crossed the line by responding with monosyllables and complaining to journalists about their questions. At the US Open 2024, she is also not very inclined to talk too much, as she showed in her media appearance after defeating the Australian Aiava. Five questions, two answered with a brief "yes" and the others with short responses.

Elena Rybakina announced on social media that she will no longer be working with her coach of the past five years, Stefano Vukov. Their relationship had drawn criticism for the way he addressed the Kazakh on the court, but the breakup has caught many by surprise just days before the start of the US Open 2024.
Just days before the #USOpen begins, Elena Rybakina announces she has split with her longtime coach Stefano Vukov.

Elena Rybakina, who was returning to the courts after Wimbledon, continues on the rollercoaster she seems to be on lately and today suffered a defeat that may be hard for her to digest looking ahead to the US Open, which will begin in just over a week. The Kazakh had two match points against Leylah Fernandez, who turned everything around to take the victory by 3-6 7-6 6-4 in a match that was a double fault festival. Between the two, they combined for a total of 30 (13 Leylah and 17 Elena). In this way, Rybakina falls in her debut in Cincinnati and allows the Canadian to achieve her best victory since the US Open 2021.

The withdrawal of Elena Rybakina after the singles draw of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games meant that Daria Saville replaced her in the bracket. However, the Australian has also ended up withdrawing, which has given Sara Errani the opportunity to be the replacement for both. Thus, the Italian will have triple duty as she will compete in singles, doubles, and mixed doubles.
