Elina Svitolina (Ukrainian: Еліна Світоліна, pronounced [eˈl⁽ʲ⁾inɐ s⁽ʲ⁾wiˈtɔl⁽ʲ⁾inɐ]; born 12 September 1994) is a Ukrainian professional tennis player. She has career-high rankings of world No. 3 in singles and No. 108 in doubles by the WTA. Svitolina has won 19 WTA Tour singles titles, including the 2018 WTA Finals and four Premier 5-level tournaments, and has reached four major semifinals.
Svitolina first broke into the world's top 50 in July 2013 and the top 10 in May 2017, making her the highest-ranked Ukrainian woman in history. Svitolina reached two major semifinals in 2019 at Wimbledon and the US Open. In 2021, she won an Olympic bronze medal in the women's singles tournament at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics to become the first Olympian to win a medal in tennis for Ukraine.
In 2022, Svitolina took a break from professional tennis to give birth to her first child. She made a strong comeback upon her return to competition in 2023, reaching the French Open quarterfinals and the Wimbledon semifinals in her first few tournaments back. She achieved consistent success in the following years, culminating in an Australian Open semifinal and return to the world's top 10 in 2026.
