To her first individual final within the WTA circuit, of course. Unbelievable that someone with the talent and relevance of Taylor Townsend had never set foot in an individual final within the circuit, but the positive side is that finally, the day has come. The 29-year-old American has achieved this weekend at the WTA 250 in Austin after overcoming her compatriot Ashlyn Krueger (7-6, 6-3). Now, the most important part is next, performing in a match she has been waiting for many years. She will have to face another American, Peyton Stearns, who in turn defeated Kimberly Birrell (6-3, 3-6, 6-2). Are you willing to pick a favorite for the big final this Sunday?

The Spanish player defeats a top 10 rival for the first time, advances to her first final of a WTA 500 tournament, and ensures she will leave Mexico with the best ranking of her career.
Now that we are in the month of March, it's time to think about what lies ahead with the Indian Wells 2026 tournament. So far, the spotlight has been on the women's qualifying draw, featuring well-known names like Katie Boulter, Renata Zarazúa, Martina Trevisan, Taylor Townsend, Lulu Sun, Storm Hunter, and Madison Brengle. Notably missing from the lineup is the Spanish flag, as none of our players currently hold a spot in this stage of the competition. We will be keeping an eye out in the coming days to see which 12 women will secure their place in the main draw.

What a week for Cristina Bucsa at the WTA 500 in Mérida, one of those that can define a season until the end. We knew the draw would be wide open from the beginning, but the Spanish player's dominance has secured her, regardless of tonight's final outcome, her best professional ranking from tomorrow onwards. The Cantabrian, who will battle to clinch her first title against Magdalena Frech, virtually positions herself as the #46 in the world, though the trophy would propel her to a hypothetical #31, confirming her longstanding status as the most in-form Spanish tennis player in recent months.

Emma Raducanu made headlines this week with her signing to Uniqlo, leaving behind the Nike brand, which she had been with since the early days of her professional career. Once the figures of both contracts, the old and the new one, became known, the British player's decision is understandable. She will go from earning around $100,000 per year with Nike to the $3.5 million annual guarantee from Uniqlo.
Raducanu's Nike earnings have been REVEALED:

Only $100,000 annually 💶
It is unknown what they would have offered for renewal, but Uniqlo guarantees her $3.5 million per year.
It is a tremendous economic boost. https://t.co/6HKBSFEv9j pic.twitter.com/9wiDUTLP12

After the tough defeat against Elena Rybakina at the 2026 Australian Open and Maria Sakkari at the WTA Doha, Iga Swiatek took a few weeks off to recharge and try to improve in a key area for better results. "Technically speaking, our main goal was to enhance our serve. Also, we focused mainly on perfecting tactical elements and the initial shots after the serve and return. We worked on achieving greater consistency in crucial moments and maintaining the appropriate intensity from the first ball," revealed her coach Wim Fissette.
