Anastasia Gasanova career defined by early upsets
Anastasia Gasanova announced herself at tour level with unusually strong first wins. In her first WTA main draw at Abu Dhabi in 2021, she upset Karolina Pliskova while ranked No. 292, then added victories over Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova, Jil Teichmann and Elina Svitolina across the next year. WTA noted that she was unbeaten against Top 45 opponents entering Roland Garros 2022, even while consistency against the rest of the field remained difficult. Her current No. 192 ranking and No. 121 peak reflect that contrast: proven upset capacity without a steady Top 100 base.
