Ena Shibahara
Ena Shibahara (柴原 瑛菜, Shibahara Ena; born 12 February 1998) is an American-born Japanese professional tennis player. She reached her career-high rankings of world No. 4 in doubles on 21 March 2022 and No. 116 in singles on 14 July 2025. Shibahara has won eleven doubles titles on the WTA Tour, including two WTA 1000, the 2021 Miami Open and the 2023 National Bank Open.
Shibahara won her first major title at the 2022 French Open, alongside Wesley Koolhof in mixed doubles. Partnering with Shuko Aoyama, she reached the women's doubles finals at the 2023 Australian Open, in addition to the semifinals at the 2021 Wimbledon Championships, the 2022 Australian Open, and at the 2021 WTA Finals.
She made her Billie Jean King Cup debut for Japan in 2020, and also participated in the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. Until July 2019, Shibahara represented her country of birth, the United States.
In 2016, she graduated from Palos Verdes Peninsula High School and attended UCLA before turning pro after her sophomore season.
Shibahara made her Grand Slam main-draw debut at the US Open in the doubles event, partnering with Jada Hart as wildcard entrants, where they lost to seventh seeds Sania Mirza and Barbora Strýcová in the first round. Later in the tournament, Shibahara and Hart won the girls' doubles title.
Shibahara played her first five doubles tournaments of the year with Hayley Carter winning two titles and reaching another final. This raised her ranking from No. 205 to an entry into the top 100, with a doubles ranking of world No. 98 on May 20.
Shibahara then played tournaments with eight other partners before playing her first tournament with Shuko Aoyama in August at the Silicon Valley Classic in San Jose, where they reached the final. Shibahara said, "Our chemistry was spot on from the beginning, where I would set her up from the baseline and she just moves all over the net".
Shibahara and Aoyama played five more tournaments together in 2019, winning their first two titles at the Tianjin Open (Shibahara's first WTA Tour-level title) and Kremlin Cup in Moscow. By the end of the year, Shibahara's WTA doubles ranking was world No. 31.
