Season News

Kalinskaya is 6-4 over her last ten and just put together the deepest slam stretch of her 2026 at Roland-Garros, where four wins — including a third-set tiebreak escape past Anastasia Potapova — ran out against Maja Chwalinska, who closed it 7-6(7), 6-3 after Kalinskaya let slip set points in the opening breaker. The clay swing before it was thin — early exits in Charleston and Madrid — but the Paris result holds her at No. 24.

How Drop Shot Score is Calculated

Drop Shot Score is the fantasy scoring system that drives every fantasy tennis league and salary-cap contest on the platform.

Each match earns base points for the round reached (more at the Grand Slams, less at 250s) plus bonus points for upsets, straight-set wins, and per-event stat leaderships (most aces, fewest double faults, most break-points converted). League commissioners can customize per-round point values, bonus weights, and matchup format — full breakdown on How It Works.

A season Drop Shot Score sums every match's points. Deep runs and upset bonuses can push players up the fantasy rank independent of ATP/WTA position.

About Anna Kalinskaya

The qualifier who beat three champions, now a clay-court late bloomer

Anna Kalinskaya is the Moscow-born ball-striker who spent nearly a decade grinding through the lower tiers before a single February in 2024 made her a name on the marquee. She began her career at 17 by winning the girls' doubles title at the 2016 Australian Open alongside Tereza Mihalíková, after reaching the 2015 French Open girls' singles final and the 2015 US Open junior doubles final with Anastasia Potapova. Injuries and inconsistency stalled the senior climb — she came into 2024 ranked No. 80 and was a dismal 4-13 in her career at the majors, having never won a main-draw match in Melbourne.

The game is built for hard courts and short points. Kalinskaya is an aggressive baseliner who strikes both wings cleanly and flat, taking the ball early to rush opponents and shorten rallies, with a two-handed backhand that's a reliable point-ending shot. At 5-foot-9 the serve and the depth of her returns do the heavy lifting; what stood out in her breakthrough was temperament, not panic. She works with former top-30 player Patricia Tarabini, whose mixed-doubles Roland-Garros pedigree shows in Kalinskaya's improved shot selection.

The arc turned in early 2024. Her best Slam result was a quarterfinal at the Australian Open, beating Sloane Stephens and Jasmine Paolini before falling to Qinwen Zheng. Weeks later, as a qualifier in Dubai, she beat three top-10 players in a row — Jelena Ostapenko, Coco Gauff and world No. 1 Iga Swiatek — to reach her first full WTA Tour final, becoming just the second qualifier ever to make a WTA 1000 final before losing to Paolini. A second final followed at the Berlin Open, and she hit a career-high No. 11 in singles on 28 October 2024.

The current beat: at 27, ranked No. 24, Kalinskaya finally broke her clay ceiling. She reached the quarterfinals at the 2026 French Open, matching her best-ever major result on a surface that long looked like her weakest. Still chasing a maiden singles title, she's no longer a one-week story — she's a fixture in the seeded ranks.
