WTA Finals Review: Rybakina Just Sent A Message | Ep. 75
Elena Rybakina just put the entire women’s tour on notice.
In Riyadh she didn’t just win — she took time away from the biggest hitters in the sport, went coast-to-coast, and made a real case that we have a new tier forming at the top.
In this episode we break down what makes Rybakina’s game so suffocating, how she’s evolved tactically, why her compact mechanics change the geometry of rallies, and what this week tells us about the next four years in women’s tennis.
Then we pivot to the men — because the ATP Finals actually matter this year — and we get into the Musetti chaos, Felix’s re-emergence, and Novak’s mid-tournament “I’m not going to Turin” moment.
If you love the sport at a technical and narrative level — this one is a feast.
