Oleksandra Oliynykova Reaches the Big Stage
Oleksandra Oliynykova’s rise is a remarkable story. Forced to flee Ukraine as a child and grow up as a refugee in Croatia, she began her pro career relying on fan support just to stay on tour.
Her persistence paid off over time. Oliynykova steadily improved her ranking across nine years, grinding through the lower levels of the circuit.
The breakthrough finally came last season. She lifted three WTA 125 titles and added multiple ITF trophies, marking a major leap forward.
Those results secured her long-awaited top-100 debut and a spot in the Australian Open, completing a remarkable rise on the biggest stage.

Madison Keys Looking to Reignite Form
Madison Keys opened the season with quarterfinal runs in Brisbane and Adelaide. She was stopped by Aryna Sabalenka in Brisbane and Victoria Mboko in Adelaide.
Even so, the American picked up three wins across the two WTA 500 events, marking her first match victories since Cincinnati in August.
Those results underline a longer gap since her biggest success. Keys has not reached a final since lifting her maiden Grand Slam title at the Australian Open last year.
After Melbourne, she managed semifinal finishes at Indian Wells and Queen’s Club, but her season tailed off sharply, with a disappointing end that included skipping the Asian swing entirely.

Verdict
