NEW YORK, Sept 7 (Reuters) - Doubts over Elena Rybakina's fitness lingered until the eve of the U.S. Open and the Kazakh said she was amazed by her progress from an ankle injury after reaching the quarter-finals on Monday to edge closer to the world number one ranking.
The second seed arrived in New York without having played since retiring from her Cincinnati Open quarter-final against Iga Swiatek last month but has pieced together a superb run to storm into the last eight without dropping a set.
