Madison Keys joined Serena Williams in pulling off an impressive feat as the world No. 5 is the fifth player in the Open Era to clinch at least 15 consecutive hard-court wins after turning 30. 

After going 12-0 across the Adelaide International and the Australian Open, the American – who celebrated her 30th birthday in February – also registered wins in her opening three Indian Wells matches. 

Before Keys, the last player to win 15 consecutive matches on hard aged 30+ was Williams. The American tennis icon did it in late 2013 and early 2014, when she went on a run of 25 wins on hard courts in a row. 

The players that have also achieved the feat include Billie Jean King, Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova.

15 – Madison Keys has become the fifth player aged 30+ in the Open Era to win 15 consecutive WTA matches on hard court after Billie Jean King, Chris Evert, Martina Navratilova and Serena Williams. Extraordinary.#TennisParadise | @BNPPARIBASOPEN @WTA @WTA_insider pic.twitter.com/NXJTFF4whT

Keys was close to seeing her streak end at 14 consecutive wins

After surviving a three-setter against Elise Mertens in the Indian Wells second round, the No. 5 seed earned another hard-fought victory on Wednesday after overcoming Donna Vekic 4-6 7-6 (7) 6-3. After the match, the 30-year-old acknowledged that there was a moment when she felt she was close to getting bounced in two sets. 

“Donna was playing so well… At some point I felt like it was do or die. Probably at 5-5 in the second set tiebreaker. I decided I was gonna go for a bit more. Really happy to get the win,” Keys said in her on-court interview.

Before the American won the second-set tie-break, she was also 5-3 down to Vekic. Fortunately for the home favorite, she found a way to win and now has a notable feat by her name.
