You know WTA is dead if she does make it to Top 10 without a single victory against a Top 10 player.Gosh I hope not YET...
Emma has played 13 tournaments since the US Open. 6 opening round losses. 8-13 record. Highest ranked win: #49. She's 57th in the race in spite of good seeding and favorable draws.
She hasn't beaten a top 10 opponent yet in her career. It might be good if she has to work a little harder for it than some people dropping points between RG and Wimbledon.

Well she's the highest ranked in Nottingham, and only Sabalenka of the top 10 is playing a tournament that week, so she could very well get to it. Her highest seeded competitors are Giorgi, Cornet, Riske, Zhang, Tomljanovic, & Haddad Maia.You know WTA is dead if she does make it to Top 10 without a single victory against a Top 10 player.
Or she goes the Andreescu path and doesn't even sniff a Top 10 without the frozen rankings fiasco? There's every chance Raducanu's high-water mark has happened in 2021 already and she won't be able to "start off" without those USO points. Not to mention UK media will probably keep her in the spotlight for years to come due to almost zero British competition.Even if she doesn't get there this year. She can still get there in the future. I think her career will only reay start off after the us open defending pressure is gone and she can play more free again.
Bianca's career is not over yet either and she was top 5 before covid.Or she goes the Andreescu path and doesn't even sniff a Top 10 without the frozen rankings fiasco?
