I think we often make the mistake of comparing the best and worst of a player or team and then focusing on the high as if that wasn't a momentary blip. The greater surprise is not that Genie has spent long periods outside the top 100 but that she was ever a top 5 player, albeit for just one week.
Two WTA250 finals in the past 7 months and she has taken her ranking from 332 a year ago to 116 this week. She's travelling and putting in the effort and I commend her for that. She will never reach top 50 again but I believe she is good enough to gain direct entry to another 10+ grand slams.
