Elena, who won the Stuttgart Open on Sunday, reveals it took her over a year to enjoy driving the supercar she was awarded after winning the same tournament in 2024 as she didn’t have a driving licence

World No. 2 tennis ace Elena Rybakina, who won a Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet supercar after beating Karolina Muchova 7-5, 6-1 in the Stuttgart Open on Sunday, is more than happy to take home a second mean machine from the same tournament, having won the title in 2024 too.
Interestingly though, two years ago, when she was awarded the Porsche Taycan 4S Turismo after beating Marta Kostyuk 6-2, 6-2 in the final, she was unable to drive it as she did not have a driving licence. She got her license only last year.
