My Take
Kenin is the kind of player I root for instinctively. At 170 cm she was never going to overpower anyone on a tour full of giants, yet she muscled her way to world No. 4 and a 2020 Australian Open title on grit, footwork and sheer competitive venom. That season, capped by a French Open final and WTA Player of the Year honors, proved she was no fluke. I love that her game runs on stubbornness rather than raw physics. The Russian-born, American-raised story adds texture too, but it's that Scorpio refusal to lose tight points that really makes me admire her.
