Daria Saville is on a rampant run returning inside the Top 100 of the WTA rankings after three seasons. Despite an unfortunate 1-6 5-7 loss to Greek Maria Sakkari, the Australian will now rise up once again after a terrible history of injuries.

Her husband, Luke Saville, is also an active tennis player achieving highest ranking of World No. 23 in men’s doubles. Currently, he was playing at a ATP Challenger event in Great Britain.

“Incredible persistence coming back from multiple setbacks… just the beginning!,” he added. Next week onwards, she will be provisionally ranked as high as 95th. The only other Australian woman in the Top 100 is Ajla Tomljanovic, at 45th.

Daria Saville isn’t happy about the tennis world’s indifference towards Ukraine?

The 28-year-old confirmed that she will be participating later this month at the Wimbledon Championships. “Top 100 in 5 months since being back on tour Next stop: Wimby,” a tweet read.

She also sported a Ukrainian flag outfit earlier this year in support of the ongoing war with Russia. But, with Wimbledon’s decision to ban Russian and Belarusian players, it could mean a major list of names withdrawing from the tournament.

“To be honest, probably the tennis community does not support Ukraine enough. We could support more. I must say that I am very upset by the decision of the ATP and WTA on Wimbledon,” said Saville earlier this month.

“I can’t even imagine how the Ukrainian players are feeling right now. They probably feel like the other side was chosen and not theirs. I’m really sorry that this is happening.” she concluded.
