BENGALURU - Diana Shnaider's four WTA titles in a breakthrough season took her to the brink of the top 10 in the world and suggested the Russian might soon become known for a lot more than her trademark polka dot bandanas.

The versatile 20-year-old made bold statements with her fashion and all-court game in 2024, winning titles on the hard courts of Hua Hin and Hong Kong, as well as the grass of Bad Homburg and on clay in Budapest.
Ranked outside the top 100 in 2022 and 60th at the end of 2023, Shnaider is now No. 13. Her four titles tie top-ranked Aryna Sabalenka's season haul, even if two of the Belarusian's were Majors. Only world No. 2 Iga Swiatek, with five, won more.
"It's nice to be in that company," said Shnaider, who reached a career-high ranking of 12th in November. "I'll definitely push harder to be on the same stage as them, to win more tournaments and at even higher categories. That's the future.
