Starting with 2015, Kvitova has won 16 tournaments, including four on grass, and reached the Australian Open final plus the YEC final.

In that same span, she is 9-7 at Wimbledon with one 4th round appearance.

Plus she won Miami this year.

In looking this up, I saw Kvitova won Miami. I had totally forgotten that.

She has won 30 titles overall .some of the players we think are great have won 3 !

Andreescu won Indian Wells, Canada, and the US Open - those are 3 pretty big tournaments. I don't actually know to whom you are referring to here that won only 3 tournaments so I went with Andreescu. I don't think Andreescu is a great player - she's a good player who had a great year, and has struggled with injuries throughout her career. Kvitova is a great player, and a future hall of famer.

Oh I am a big Andreescu fan..I think she will come back to the top..

[ponchi101]

Plus, perhaps we can make a difference too. There are some players that WERE great and were contenders, but that is no longer the case. Pliskova was a top player; that is not longer the case.
And then, you have some players that are great NOW. And I can only think of Swiatek entering that group.

Wonder if Rybakina and/or Sabalenka will look into WC's for next week. They each got only two matches of this week, none last. I would not want to go into W with such little time on grass.

You were right..Rybakina has entered Eastbourne...tough first round against Wang..

[ponchi101]

It's the best thing she could have done. Her RG campaign ended early, so she had some free time, and she only played one match last week. So no worries about fatigue, and on grass, she will have quicker matches. Better to go to W with two or three this week.

[ashkor87]

Oh well, now she is out with a virus.
