Even asking this is ridiculous.

Elaine.

If Sakkari has a better career than Svitolina, she also has a better career than Barty, OP

 

[comotMN]

Sakkari can't win a semifinal, duh

 

[Samsonite]

I can‘t think of a better player than Svitolina who has never reached a grand slam final.

Nadia Petrova?

 

[textenfan]

They both have one title or more lol Serena also has one title or more.

 

[Shvedbarilescu]

Tatiana Maria would be a better comparison with Sakkari. Both reached a Grand Slam semifinal but neither were able to advance to the final. Of course Tatiana Maria has two titles to Maria Sakkari's one title. But Sakkari still has time to gain that elusive 2nd title.

Nadia Petrova?

Good choice.

Obvs it's Svitolina overall but currently Maria is having the better career and is at her peak.
Am really unsure of how Svitolina's game is going to match up on the current tour and Charleston is kind of a rough place to comeback. I think getting back into the top 20 would be a huge accomplishment, but maybe she will come back hungrier and looking for that elusive slam.

Elaine has 16 titles. Maria has....................... ONE. And she wouldn't have any if Jo Konta hadn't choked away a 6-2 4-2 lead in Rabat.

Not a comparison at all really.

Sakkari has 2 of these - RG 2020 (l. to eventual champion Krejcikova in a tight 3 setter) and USO 2021

 

[Potapovian]

Both flops

 

[posthuman]

Poll?

 

[redpinkboxes]

Even if they have the same stats, Elina for sure because she competed in a more competitive era.

 

[Hanan Ubis]

Svitolina had tougher competition that prevented her from ascending further

Plus has accomplished a ton more than Sakkari

 

[TNT96]

How is this even a thread?
Rabat Champion vs 16 Titles including Year End Champjonships
Is Rabat so special that it erases 16 Titles?
“Hey Lucy-something doesn’t smell right”

 

[goldenlox]

Its not close. Svitolina used to win premiers a lot. She underachieved at majors but was a huge threat in places like Doha
Sakkari is a mental case everywhere, but she still has a few years to put it all together

 

[kassipops]

As if the two can even be compared.

Sakkers, obviously. Don’t pretend you’ve ever been invested in a E-Svit semi-final.

 

[Sheriff]

Is this a joke?

 

[Emerrald]

I can‘t think of a better player than Svitolina who has never reached a grand slam final.

She even doesn't have a PM final

 

[Emerrald]

Definitely Svitolina, but Sakkary is better at some important aspects:
1) was closer to win a slam
2) She has a PM Final

Troll thread.
I think the lack of an actual poll means you already know the answer to this.
