Jelena Ostapenko is a professional tennis player from Latvia, who first turned pro in 2014. Since then, she has achieved many accolades in tennis, with her French Open win in 2017 being her best accomplishment. Since then, she has not come into the public eye that often. She fell down in singles ranking by a considerable margin and now stands at 21.

But Ostapenko looks like she has returned to form, as one can see from her current exploits in the US Open. She beat the world number 1, Iga Swiatek, in three sets and will now face the Cincinnati Masters champion, Coco Gauff. The hype about her impressive form has reached sky high, and her fans want to know more about her.
