Currently ranked No. 35 in the world in women’s singles, Sloane Stephens is enjoying a solid start to the 2024 professional tennis season. The 31-year-old won her first professional doubles title at the Charleston Open at the beginning of April. Then, she closed out the month with her eighth singles title, taking home the Open de Rouen in Rouen, France.

Over the past few years, the Florida native has been working her way back to the top. Following her 2017 US Open win, Stephens achieved her highest ranking of No. 3. But the next few years saw some struggles for the pro. Now, she’s making a comeback.

But tennis isn’t the only area in which she’s thriving. Stephens wears a lot of hats: professional athlete, entrepreneur, wife to professional soccer player Jozy Altidore and stepparent to his son, Cameron. And she is about to add another title to the list: podcast host.
