Well, Keys has 6, Kvitova has 30 or so...Bencic is in between, which is what one would expect ..but yes, at first blush, I would have guessed 12 or so

just for context (i had to look it up): Sakkari has 1, Badosa has 3 titles.. Svitolina has 16, Halep 24.
I wonder why people think so highly of Sakkari and Badosa.. !

Is Svitolina better than Bencic? Not obviously to me.

She has been to a Slam final...Bencic hasn't...for instance...

Yes, but that's too simplified. Raducanu has won a Slam, but she's not even top 10 level on a regular day. Not yet anyway.

Svitolina hasn't played a slam final - best slam result is two semifinals in 2019. Bencic has also made the semis, but only once, and Svitolina has made more quarters than Bencic.

Just for completeness: (according to Wiki)
Player Titles (tour level)
Kvitova 29
Halep 24
Azarenka 21
Svitolina 16
Sabalenka 12
Garcia 11
Bencic 8
Keys 6
Badosa 3
Jabeur 3
Rybakina 3
Gauff 3
Pegula 2
Sakkari 1
Parks 1 (just because..)
None of these is really surprising, I guess... except Pegula, perhaps.. I woud have thought she would have more but in fact she has burst into the top echelons only recently

Why did you omit Swiatek and her 11 titles?
