Rick Macci Forecasts Victoria Mboko’s Top-Five Breakthrough and Grand Slam Charge by 2026
Acclaimed coach Rick Macci believes Canada’s rising star Victoria Mboko can reach the WTA top five by 2026. The former mentor to Serena and Venus Williams has praised her rapid climb. Less than 15 months ago, Mboko sat outside the top 300. In 2025 she cracked the top 100 and won the Canadian Open. Wins at the WTA 1000 and Hong Kong events then lifted her into the top 20. Now 19 and ranked world No. 10, she has already reached finals at the Adelaide International and Qatar Open this season. Her rapid progress has caught global attention. Macci took to X to predict further breakthroughs. He says Mboko will soon contend for Grand Slam titles and make her mark on the biggest stages.
