Rybakina takes over from Swiatek Stuttgart!

Elena Rybakina won the 2024 Porsche Tennis Grand Prix Stuttgart on Sunday. In the final, she easily beat Ukrainian Marta Kostyuk in just over an hour and two short sets (6-2, 6-2). The Kazakh thus succeeds two-time title-holder Iga Swiatek, whom she beat in the semi-finals on Saturday after a superb battle (6-3, 4-6, 6-3).

Rybakina, 24, thus clinches her 3rd WTA title of the season, the 8th of her career. She also consolidates her world No. 4 ranking and moves within 1,000 points of world No. 3 Coco Gauff (6,293 points vs. 7,258).
