However, she was found answering a question which is the most controversial for any football fan. A fan asked Kenin whether she is a supporter of Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo. This is a question which can easily make you the beloved of one group and an object of hate for the other.

However, the follow up has been a concern for her. She lost her first-round matches in Dubai and Qatar, certainly not what she would have wanted. She did gain some momentum at the Lyon Open where she claimed the trophy.

The Coronavirus ensured that she was not able to run with it. Her biggest challenge after the tennis season resumes would be to prove her mettle and that her victory was not by chance. She certainly has the capability to become world number one.
