Jeļena Ostapenko is a Latvian tennis player, and the first (and currently only) player from her country to win a Grand Slam singles title.
Ostapenko was born in Riga, Latvia, in 1997, and began playing tennis at the age of 5. A promising dancer as a child, Ostapenko began to take tennis more seriously as a young teenager, seeking to emulate her hero, Serena Williams.
At 17 years of age, Ostapenko won the 2014 Wimbledon girls' singles title, and made her WTA-level debut later that season. A year later, the young Latvian saw more success in SW19, beating ninth-seed Carla Suárez Navarro in the first round of the ladies' singles draw. By the end of 2015, just over a year on from her WTA debut, Ostapenko was ranked inside the top-100.
Jeļena Ostapenko's most famous win came in 2017, when, ranked just outside the top-40, she won the Roland-Garros singles title. Her victory in the final, just after her 20th birthday, made her the first unseeded winner of the women's singles title since 1933. Moreover, it was Ostapenko's first WTA singles title - though she has since added to her trophy cabinet.
Ostapenko plays very aggressively, often opting to play flat, but attacking, low-percentage shots. Her most noted weapons are her incredibly powerful forehand and backhand, which can both be hit deep into the court, down the line, or cross-court. Her forceful shot-making is matched by her determined, competitive persona.
It was a good experience and the crowd management was pretty good, except for foreigners who attended with passport verification. It was not so convenient to reenter the Diamond Court without being escorted by the friend who booked the tickets on our behalf. The ushers at the gate kept on insisting to check the original booking on the mini app, and passport verification was not sufficient.
It was an amazing experience being the first time in China. The event was well organized, and the courts were clean. Watching the top players live was out of this world.
It was an experience of a lifetime, unforgettable. The only thing we would have loved is the use of Visa instead of drawing cash as some of us travelled far, we came from South Africa. We will definitely attend again
Very well organised n helpful staff
Disappointing this year. Struggle to get there due to the public transport closures. Games rescheduled on the day to what seemed illogical decision so 3 games to be played from 4.30pm and no games prior. The last game would be starting very late. Quite a big ask for spectators to stay that late then with very limited transport home. The mens final only lasted 1 game ( out of the organisers control i know) but paid $400 to watch one game as the mens ended early and the doubles would finish too late to get home. Not great value for money . What we did see was amazing but not great organising in general this year . Have been for many years but not a great experience.this year unfortunately.
As usual the organisation and players were great. Unfortunately I have the same ‘complaint’ as I have voiced by emails previously. I accompany a person with disability and the first time we were seated in the North stand area for disability seating the chairs provided were good. Last year and this year they are not suitable. To hard and not easy for anyone to push themselves up from. I did observe that the good chairs are still being used in the lower east court side section. So therefor I see no reason why these cannot also be provided or at least given as an option to persons with disabilities! Frankly even I have suffered from a sore back today even though we brought cushions to help and I do not have a disability. It would also be polite to have at least an acknowlefgement of this correspondence.
