Jelena Ostapenko
The 21-year-old made her debut inside the Top 5 in March, but she's starting the 2019 season ranked No. 22. Though she endured some dips in 2018, she still reached the final in Miami with wins over Petra Kvitova and Elina Svitolina. Her next highlight was reaching her first Wimbledon semifinal, which marked her deepest Grand Slam run since winning the 2017 French Open.
