Timeline

2020

On November 21, Kerber announced that she has hired former World #130 Dieter Kindlmann as her coach. Kindlmann has worked with Elise Mertens, Madison Keys, Ajla Tomljanović, and was Maria Sharapova's hitting partner. On December 4, it was announced that Kerber will play in the inaugural 2020 Adelaide International.

2018

She then entered the Qatar Total Open where she met Sabine Lisicki again, defeating her in the first round. She lost to unseeded Bulgarian Tsvetana Pironkova in the second round. Kerber's next tournament was the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells. Receiving a bye in the first round as the 18th seed, she defeated Sloane Stephens in her opening match, advancing to the fourth round via default over Vania King, who withdrew, and then produced another win from behind against Christina McHale. Kerber upset eighth seed Li Na in the quarterfinals before her successful week came to an end, losing to world number one and eventual champion Victoria Azarenka. Her ranking improved to a career high of No. 14 as a result of that run in California. In Miami, Kerber was upset in her opener against Zheng Jie.

Kerber played at the Hopman Cup alongside Alexander Zverev; they lost in the final to Switzerland in a rematch of the 2018 Hopman Cup final. In Sydney, Kerber entered as defending champion, defeating Camila Giorgi, but lost to Petra Kvitová in the quarterfinals. In the Australian Open, Kerber defeated Polona Hercog, Beatriz Haddad Maia (gaining her 100th Grand Slam win), and Kimberly Birrell in straight sets, only to be upset in the fourth round by Danielle Collins in straight sets.

2017

At the start of the 2017 season, Kerber competed in the Brisbane International as the top seed. After receiving a first round bye, Kerber won her opening match against Ashleigh Barty in three sets but then lost to Elina Svitolina in the quarterfinals. Kerber then competed at Apia International Sydney where she received a first-round bye but proceeded to lose her opening match to Russian teenager Daria Kasatkina.

Her woes continued into the US hard court swing where she lost to Sloane Stephens in the opening round of the Rogers Cup. She suffered another opening-round loss to Ekaterina Makarova at the 2017 Western & Southern Open despite having a match point, and another first round loss to Naomi Osaka as the defending champion at the US Open. With this loss Kerber dropped out of the top 10.

Her struggles continued beyond the US Open. At the Toray Pan Pacific Open she took revenge on Naomi Osaka and defeated Daria Kasatkina and Karolina Pliskova before falling to Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova. At the Wuhan Open she lost in the first round to eventual champion Caroline Garcia. At the China Open she defeated Naomi Osaka again before losing to Alizé Cornet. At Luxembourg Kerber lost to Monica Puig. Having failed to qualify for the 2017 WTA Finals & losing both her round robin matches at 2017 WTA Elite Trophy, Kerber dropped out of top 20 for the first time since 2012.

On 16 November 2017, Kerber announced on Twitter that she had ended her partnership with longtime coach Torben Beltz and had hired Wim Fissette. Fissette would work with Kerber until 16 October of the following year.

Kerber started her season at Brisbane; her last entry into this tournament was in 2017. Her performance resulted in a shock first-round loss to Australian tennis player Samantha Stosur in straight sets, 7–6, 7–6. On January 12, before commencing the inaugural Adelaide International, she participated in an exhibition match alongside Simona Halep as part of the Rally for Resilience charity event, an effort to raise funds to aid the delivery of year-round sports program in socially-disadvantaged areas in South Australia. She then participated at Adelaide, where she was scheduled to face Sloane Stephens in the first round. Following the withdrawal of Petra Kvitová, however, Kerber was promoted to 9th Seed, and the match was cancelled. She defeated Wang Qiang in straight sets in the first round, but she retired from her match against Dayana Yastremska due to a left-hamstring injury, with Kerber down one set and a break. At the Australian Open, Kerber defeated Elisabetta Cocciaretto, Priscilla Hon, and Camila Giorgi, before falling to Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova in the fourth round. Kerber subsequently withdrew from the cancelled BNP Paribas Open and Miami Open due to a left-leg injury. Kerber finished the summer hard-court season ranked 21st, before the 2020 WTA Tour entered a hiatus and the rankings became paused due to the 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic.

Her portfolio of endorsements has made her the second highest-paid female athlete in the world in the annual Forbes list of 2017.

2016

A continually high-ranking left-handed female tennis player, Kerber has won 12 career singles titles across all surfaces on the WTA Tour, including the aforementioned three Grand Slam titles: the 2016 Australian Open, the 2016 US Open and the 2018 Wimbledon Championships. She has also won an Olympic silver medal while representing Germany at the 2016 Rio Olympics. Kerber is currently ranked world No. 21 as of March 9, 2020.

After her Wimbledon campaign, Kerber played at the Swedish Open where she withdrew before her second round match due to an injury.

Her advance to the finals combined with Serena Williams' loss in the semifinals to 10th seeded Karolína Plíšková meant that she gathered enough points to successfully unseat Serena Williams as world No. 1, with this ranking reflected in the week starting 12 September 2016. She defeated Plíšková in three sets in the final to claim her second Grand Slam title.

On 17 October 2016, Serena Williams pulled out of the WTA Finals in Singapore due to a shoulder injury. This withdrawal secured Kerber's spot at the summit of the WTA rankings for the rest of the year. This was Kerber's first time ending the year with the No. 1 ranking. As the top seed of the Tour Finals, Kerber was drawn in the red group alongside Simona Halep, Madison Keys, and Dominika Cibulková. She won all of her round robin matches, losing only one set to Cibulková en route to her first semifinal at the event. She then defeated defending champion Agnieszka Radwańska in straight sets to reach the final to face Cibulková once again, to whom she lost in straight sets.

Kerber started her season at the Hopman Cup for the first time, and partnered with Alexander Zverev. Kerber remained undefeated in her singles matches there and helped Germany reach the final where they lost to Switzerland. Kerber then played at the Sydney International.

She faced American Madison Keys and defeated her in just under an hour in straight sets to reach her second semifinal at the Australian Open. In the semifinal clash against world No. 1 Simona Halep both had two match points in the third set, but both were unsuccessful in conversion. The match ended 9–7 in the third set, with Halep winning after the fourth match point. With this performance, Kerber returned to the top 10 in 2018, ranked 9.

Kerber then played at Doha and reached the quarterfinals defeating Samantha Stosur and Johanna Konta. In the quarterfinals she lost to top seed Caroline Wozniacki in a three setter. She then played at Dubai Tennis Championship where she defeated Barbora Strycova and qualifier Sara Errani in straight sets in first and second rounds, respectively.
