Danielle Collins has achieved a remarkable feat in the world of tennis by winning back-to-back titles at the WTA 1000 Miami and WTA 500 Charleston, marking an impressive run of 13 consecutive victories without byes in either draw. This achievement places her among the most formidable players of the decade, as noted by various commentators and her peers. Collins' victories are notable for the diversity of opponents she faced, including Badosa, Jabeur, Stephens, Mertens, Sakkari, Kasatkina (three former champions), and for her ability to adapt to different surfaces, showcasing her versatility and strength as a player. Her win streak and dual victories, losing just one set in each tournament, have propelled her from WTA No.53 to No.15 in the world rankings, a significant leap from her previous position. Additionally, Collins cited being part of the USTA Collegiate Team in her post-victory speech, underlining the support system behind her success. Meanwhile, Colombia's Camila Osorio claimed her second Hologic WTA Tour title on home soil in Bogota, defeating the top seed Bouzkova, highlighting another significant achievement in the tennis world. Collins' achievement draws a parallel with Serena Williams, who won Miami and Charleston back-to-back in 2013/2008, underscoring the significance of Collins' accomplishment in 2024.
