In a swift and dominant performance that lasted just one hour and 20 minutes, Marketa Vondrousova defied expectations to secure her maiden Grand Slam title at Wimbledon. Her impressive display showcased both her technical prowess and mental strength as she recovered from a slow start to overpower Ons Jabeur. With this victory, Vondrousova etched her name in the history books as the first unseeded woman to triumph at Wimbledon in the Open era.
