Lead

• Delink Ukrainian per MOS:OVERLINK
  • Done. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 21:40, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
• Wikilink WTA Tour
  • Not done because it's repetitive with linking Women's Tennis Association. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 21:40, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

Early life and background

• "Dayana Yastremska was born on 15 May 2000 to Marina and Alexander Yastremsky in Odessa, the third-largest city in Ukraine" - The WTA Tennis biography source in the infobox can be used to verify Yastremska's birth date and birth place
  • Done. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 21:43, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
• "Her father had been a volleyball player and also has served on the Odessa City Council." - the text in bold can be removed
  • I included it because I'm sure he is no longer a volleyball player, but not certain whether he still serves on the council (hence the "has" instead of "had"). Sportsfan77777 (talk) 21:43, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
• "After also trying other sports such as gymnastics and swimming," - "also" is unneeded
  • Done. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 21:43, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
• "She entered her first tournament when she was seven and finished in third place, despite the tournament" - close repetition of "tournament"
  • Changed to "event". Sportsfan77777 (talk) 21:43, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

Junior career

• A thought: perhaps state what the exact names of the Grade tournaments were or where they took place?
  • Added the countries for the higher-level events. Names wouldn't be so recognizable at this level. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 21:46, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
• "Yastremska closed out her junior career" - concluded
  • Done. Sportsfan77777 (talk)

2015–17: Five ITF titles, first WTA match win

• The first mention of No. should be converted to read as No.
  • Done. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 21:47, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
• Wikilink the first mention of the term wild card to Wild card (sports)
  • Done. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 21:47, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

2018: Maiden WTA title and top 100 debut at 18

• "After injuring her ankle at the Abierto Mexicano in February," - not mentioned by the ITF source. Please find a reference that explicitly states this fact
  • Added. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 21:50, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
• "and lost in qualifying at Wimbledon." - should be either in the qualifying stages or in the qualifying tournament
  • Changed to qualifying competition (the standard wording). Sportsfan77777 (talk) 21:50, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

2019: Two WTA titles, world No. 22

• "however, she began to struggle and only won one match" - won a single match
  • Changed to "only tallied one match win". ("single match" creates confusion with "singles match") Sportsfan77777 (talk) 21:56, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
• "six tournaments in part due to playing through an ankle injury.[27][2]" - refs should be in numerical order
  • Fixed. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 21:56, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
• "After a quarterfinal at the Hobart International,"- quarterfinal appearance
  • Done. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 21:56, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
• "a quarterfinal at the Wuhan Open." - reached the quarterfinal
  • I think the usage of the comma with that part of the sentence is correct. ("her best Premier 5 result of the year, a quarterfinal at the Wuhan Open") Sportsfan77777 (talk) 21:56, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
• "She partner with Jeļena Ostapenko at the Premier Mandatory China Open" - typo; should be partnered
  • Fixed. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 21:56, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

2020: First Premier final

• "During the event, she defeated three top 20 players, including No. 12 Aryna Sabalenka," - not mentioned by Tennis.com so another source is needed to verify this portion of information
  • Added list of matches as a source. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 21:58, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

National representation

  • Changed the second one to "failing to win". Sportsfan77777 (talk) 22:00, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
• "the latter of which in a third-set tiebreak." - which was in
  • Added "ended". Sportsfan77777 (talk) 22:00, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

Playing style

• "and can hit large numbers of winners." - a vast amount of winners.
  • Changed to "high". ("Numbers" is plural because it refers to hitting a high number of winners in multiple matches.) Sportsfan77777 (talk) 22:03, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
• "Yastremska was regarded as the most aggressive player on the WTA Tour," - regarded by whom?
  • Changed to "ranked" (by the Aggression Score statistic). Sportsfan77777 (talk) 22:03, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
• "having led the tour with 28.6% of her shots ending in a winner," - the symbol should be replaced with the word percent per MOS:PERCENT
  • Done. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 22:03, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

Coaches

• "she has trained in Istanbul with Gavin Hopper" - the text in bold should be written in the past tense
  • I'm not sure whether she has stopped training in Istanbul. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 22:04, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
• You don't need to have Sascha Bajin linked since he is already linked in the previous section
  • Removed. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 22:04, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

Overall the primary issues that I found during my read-through of the article concern the prose, the verification of some material that is not covered by the sources and the lack of parameters in certain references. On hold. MWright96 (talk) 21:31, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for the review, MWright96! I addressed all of the comments above. I agreed with most of them, and made some notes on the rest. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 22:44, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
