It’s not the players alone who are battling it out on the court against their exceptional opponents. But the families are equally involved in every happening in their lives, particularly on the court. And it’s more surreal when such moments are captured, depicting every emotion clearly on the face! The most recent example is Elena Rybakina’s sister, Anna Rybakina’s emotional monologue as she watches her sibling dominate the grass court against Elina Svitolina.

Despite the tough battle put by Svitolina against the former Wimbledon champion on the prestigious Centre court. The Kazakh tennis star has refused to give any leeway to her opponent. However, what caught the attention of the tennis fans other than the battle for the semifinal spot was Rybakina’s sister, Anna’s expression, which changes the moment Rybakina changes the score in her favor or against her.

The Tennis Podcast couldn’t help but share her moods with the tennis world. From an aggressive tone, with her teeth grinding as she watches Rybakina take the first set. To those nervous moments when Svitolina tries to assert her strength! This was not all. As the match neared the end, Anna resorted to the praying stance, eyes closed, head slightly tilted towards the sky. Certainly wishing for her sister’s victory!

It seems that her prayers were answered, as Rybakina sealed the deal for the semifinal spot in straight sets! Though as much as the fans loved watching the Kazakh player win the match with relative ease, Anna created her own fanbase as her emotions told the story of her sister’s win to the onlookers! Moreover, with her dominating win over the grass course, it’s certainly turning out to advantage Rybakina at Wimbledon!

Elena Rybakina emerges as favorite at the Grass Slam

Before the start of the Wimbledon Championships, tennis fans and experts were out to declare their favorites to win the tournament. Though Rybakina was seen as a strong contender, she didn’t feature in the hustle and bustle of the predictions. However, as the challengers have pushed away the favorites, the 2022 champion emerges at the top to claim her 2nd title in London.

With her strong quarterfinal display as she brushed aside the Ukrainian player’s threat with little trouble, she is set to face the Czech player, Barbora Krejčíková in the semifinals in their first encounter. Though Krejčíková has had a successful Grand Slam run in the doubles category, she is yet to claim it in the singles. Meanwhile, when it comes to Rybakina, the Kazakh player has displayed consistent performance with a few minor hiccups.

It would be interesting to watch Elena Rybakina making her way to fight the ultimate battle for her 2nd Wimbledon crown, or would Wimbledon see a new champion again?
