Day's near-misses pile up: 1-3 with three straight set-stealing losses
The Drop Shot AI ·
A 1-3 start to 2026 hides how close the margins have run for Kayla Day, now at WTA No. 137. The lone win came over Francesca Jones in the Indian Wells opener; from there she ran into seeded walls and lost three in a row, twice taking a set off a higher-ranked opponent before fading. The most telling was pushing Iga Swiatek to a second-set tiebreak after a 6-0 bagel, then the first-set tiebreak grabbed off Madison Keys at Wimbledon before dropping the next two. The level is there; closing it out hasn't been.
