In recent years, comparisons and parallels between men's and women's tennis have been made more and more often.
Although men's tennis is significantly more popular and draws more attention, some consider women's tennis more exciting and less predictable.
Well-known faces of the tennis scene, such as Greg Rusedski commented on such comparisons.
Greg Rusedski reflected on the rivalry in women's tennis, saying that the rivalry between Martina Navratilova and Chris Evert has attracted a lot of attention. However, the Brit is aware that in today's era of women's tennis, there is no such rivalry and that there are many players who are candidates for Grand Slam titles.

The 2025 season is the best indicator of that, given that four different players won the four Grand Slam titles.
Rusedski mentioned several names such as Keys, Gauff, Sabalenka and Rybakina, but emphasizes that it would be more important for women's tennis if there was any rivalry.

He thinks that the rivalry between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz in men's tennis is extremely exciting and attracts a lot of attention.

Greg hopes that in the future women's tennis will have an equally strong rivalry.
It is difficult to say with certainty what awaits us in 2026, but we certainly hope for exciting moments in both men's and women's tennis.
