Elena Rybakina Credits Stefano Vukov as AO Final Rematch Looms

World No. 5 Rybakina said Stefano Vukov’s return is “a big help” because “he knows me the best,” adding his match advice “makes a difference.” Since he rejoined, she won Ningbo, reached Tokyo semis, then went 5-0 to win the WTA Finals in Riyadh. He coached her to 2022 Wimbledon. Now she reaches her third Slam final, rematching Aryna Sabalenka.
