The best Ukrainian tennis player Elina Svitolina at the French Open will compete for the status of the first racket of the world.

So, Elina will lead the world rating in the event that the tournament wins, the current first racket of the world of Simon Halep does not reach the finals, and Caroline Wozniacki will leave the tournament at the semi-final stage.

And recently, Svitolina was defeated by Halep in the final of the tournament in Rome.
