Iga Swiatek vs Elena Rybakina head-to-head record, last five meetings
Iga Swiatek leads this rivalry by a slight margin.
Iga Swiatek and Elena Rybakina have shared some intense battles over the years, despite their completely different playing styles. Swiatek has one of the best footwork on the WTA Tour, and her movement on the court is primarily responsible for her phenomenal success on clay courts.
On the other hand, Elena Rybakina is one of the cleanest and strongest ball-strikers on tour, but has struggled with consistency in the past.
Swiatek is the undisputed queen of clay with four French Open titles to her name, but has found little success on other surfaces. While the Kazakh boasts a well-rounded game that thrives across all three conditions— a testament to her exceptional talent, which remains, to some extent, underutilized.
While Iga Swiatek has five Slams, Rybakina has triumphed only once, at Wimbledon in 2022. The pair met for the first time in a WTA-500 hard-court event named the Ostrava Open, with Swiatek winning in straight sets. However, Rybakina went on to emerge victorious in the next three contests, including the Australian Open and two ATP Masters.
In their initial six exchanges, Rybakina held the advantage in this head-to-head, winning four out of them. However, the next three matches witnessed a shift in momentum towards the former World No. 1, which involved a memorable win in the French Open 2025 round of 16 clash.
The future of women’s tennis lies firmly in the hands of these two ladies, and plenty more riveting duels are up for grabs in the future.
