Jankovic hoping to return the top
The world No. 21 won three titles this season.
Jelena Jankovic, who is currently ranked No. 21, says that she wants to return to the top of the game.
The 30-year-old has dealt with a number of injuries this season.
“To come back to [the] top, improve my game and be in good shape. That is the primary goal,” Jankovic told press while playing in the Champions Tennis League. “Injuries were stopping [me] not only physically, but [also] mentally. Every time I had to come back, I had to start from there [scratch]. In the last couple of months, I have been able to get that consistency on a daily basis.”
The Serbian did win three tournaments this season, including Guangzhou and Hong Kong (where she beat Venus Williams and Angelique Kerber), and a $125,000 event in Nanchang.
The former No. 1 reached the final at Indian Wells this year as well as the semifinals of Cincinnati. She also enjoyed a run to the fourth round at Wimbledon, upsetting two-time champion Petra Kvitova on her way.
