Martina was like, she should be number one.

This Martina Navratilova, she should have been winning multiple slams.

So everybody in our sport was delighted for Maddie.

in the hurricane temperature where she, she lost it mentally and, you know, let herself down a little bit.

Couldn't handle conditions where Coco goth was so mentally strong.

She said, I'm going to find a way in these terrible conditions.

I'm going to get the job done.

That one probably hurts the most because she beats Shion tech.

who most people compare her to Rafael Nadal, a possibility of winning double-digit French Opens.

So she felt like, okay, I've got through the semis.

I played unbelievable.

She's playing by far the best tennis of anybody in that tournament, but lost that one.

Wimbledon was a hiccup against Anissimova, who played great in the semis, and you kind of felt, okay, she didn't push through.

But then she made amends and almost a redemption by winning the U.S.

Open.

And then again, she loses to Rabakina at the end of season finals.

So she was by far the number one, but didn't close the deal.

She was probably hoping at least to win two or three of those big five tournaments throughout the year.

And she's had a great start to 2026, winning Brisbane to start the year as well.
