Elena Rybakina of Kazakhstan became the first player from her country to win a major title at Wimbledon.

“I honestly didn’t think I was going to be in the second week of a Grand Slam at Wimbledon and then to be the winner it’s just amazing,” she said. “I want to congratulate Elena, she played amazing,” Jabeur said. She saved four break points and held to even the match at one set all. “I was super nervous before the match, during the match and I’m honestly happy that it finished to be honest because really I never felt something like this,” said Rybakina, the youngest woman to win Wimbledon since 2011. I think you’re inspirational not only for the young children but for everybody. Her victory comes after Wimbledon banned Russian and Belarusian players from the tournament after the invasion of Ukraine.

ELENA RYBAKINA has been crowned Wimbledon champion after defeating Ons Jabeur in three sets.

Jabeur needed to wrestle back the momentum at the start of the decider but Rybakina did not let her, leaving the third seed screaming at her box in frustration as tactics that were working in the first set were met with a superior response. She began to read and chase down Jabeur's drop shots and, after the Tunisian was unable to take any of three break back points in the fourth game, Rybakina pulled away, levelling the match with an ace. She skipped and jumped around on the grass, letting out a loud yell when she broke Rybakina in the third game.

Elena Rybakina storms back to beat Ons Jabeur in big-hitting ... (The Guardian)

Elena Rybakina came from a set down to win her Wimbledon final against Ons Jabeur and claim her first grand slam title.

Ever since people would laugh at the nine-year-old who would speak loudly of her intention to win grand slams, everything she has achieved has been the result of a gradual evolution. There may be no ranking points on offer this year, Rybakina will fall to 23rd place even though under normal circumstances she would have risen to a new ranking of around sixth, but this is a priceless victory and she has made the step up. After Rybakina took the second set, the crowd continually tried to animate Jabeur and as she trailed 2-3, she responded, generating three break points at 0-40 with a wondrous lob. Rybakina swiftly began to play on her terms, bullying Jabeur from on top of the baseline, and the Tunisian became far too tight herself. As cries of “yalla” and “allez” rang out for Jabeur, the first Arab player and African woman to reach a grand slam singles final in the Open era, Jabeur was determined to disrupt Rybakina with her complex, varied game. Instead, the pandemic struck and upon the resumption of the tour Rybakina struggled to find her way.

Her first Grand Slam final appearance ended in much happier circumstances, albeit at the expense of another major-winner-in-waiting. Jabeur missed three break-point opportunities at 3-2 down in the decider and failed to get that close again, even suffering another break of serve herself in the following game. A strong serve also remained crucial part of her game, failing to concede past 30 points in any of her first-set service points.
