Vondrousova became the first unseeded woman to win Wimbledon on Saturday, coming back in each set for a 6-4, 6-4 victory over 2022 runner-up Ons Jabeur in the final.
WIMBLEDON, England — Marketa Vondrousova came to the All England Club a year ago unable to play tennis. She had a cast on her surgically repaired left wrist, so her visit was limited to sightseeing around London with her sister and cheering for a friend who was competing at Wimbledon.
“I don’t really know what’s happening now. It’s an amazing feeling,” Vondrousova, a 24-year-old left-hander from the Czech Republic, said during the trophy ceremony. “After everything I’ve been through — I had a cast last year this time — it’s just amazing that I can stand here and hold this. Tennis is crazy.”
Centre Court's retractable roof was closed for the final, shielding everyone from the wind that topped 20 mph outside, and that perhaps allowed Vondrousova's smooth lefty strokes to repeatedly find the intended mark. Her shots betrayed none of the sort of tension that Jabeur’s shots did. But she lost to Elena Rybakina at the All England Club 12 months ago and to No. 1 Iga Swiatek at the U.S. Open in September.“It’s going to be a tough day for me today, but I’m not going to give up,” she said. “I’m going to come back stronger and win a Grand Slam one day.”She was 1-4 in previous appearances at Wimbledon, only once making it as far as the second round on its grass courts, before going 7-0 on a run that included wins against five seeded foes.
