Key Overview

Jasmine Paolini (Italian: [ˈdʒazmim paoˈliːni]; born 4 January 1996) is an Italian professional tennis player. She has been ranked as high as world No. 4 in singles by the WTA, tying the record for the highest-ranked Italian singles player with Francesca Schiavone, and No. 6 in doubles. Paolini is a three-time major finalist, contesting the singles and doubles finals of the 2024 French Open and the singles final of the 2024 Wimbledon Championships.

Early life

Paolini was born in Castelnuovo di Garfagnana and grew up between Carrara and Forte dei Marmi, in Tuscany. Her father, Ugo, is Italian and her mother, Jacqueline, is of Polish and Ghanaian descent, originally from Łódź. Her maternal grandmother, who lives in Łódź, is Polish and her maternal grandfather is Ghanaian. Her brother, William, also plays tennis.

Playing style

Paolini's playing style is dynamic and aggressive, characterized by solid groundstrokes. She uses heavy topspin on her forehand, but hits flat on her backhand. Due to her 1.63 m (5 ft 4 in) height, she has stated, "I wish I was taller, because I could serve better." However, she possesses great speed and agility, a credit to her shorter stature, allowing her to outmaneuver opponents.
