Today she began her 250th career week in the Top 10 of the WTA rankings, an incredible achievement given she’s still just 24 years old.
Having already captured her first Grand Slam title at Roland Garros in 2020, Swiatek broke into the Top 10 for the first time as a 19-year-old on May 17th, 2021, rising from No. 15 to No. 9 after winning her first WTA 1000 title in Rome. And other than slipping to No. 11 for two weeks in October that year, she’s been ranked in the Top 10 ever since.
