LONDON: Kazakhstan Tennis player Elena Rybakina produced a scintillating comeback in the Wimbledon final against Tunisia’s Ons Jabeur to lift her maiden Grand Slam title.
In an exciting final, Rybakina displayed nerve of steel as she made an astounding comeback from a set down to claim the most prestigious title in world Tennis as she defeated Jabeur 3-6, 6-2, 6-2.
The No.3 seed Jabeur, who made history on Thursday by becoming the first woman from Tunisia, Arab, and Africa to reach a grand slam final, started her first final on a high as she displayed complete control over Rybakina in the first set.
Rybakina, on the other hand, wasted no time as she quickly bounced back in the second with precise groundstrokes and turned the tables and forced the match into the decider.
The unseeded Rybakina, fuelled with momentum, then displayed the same performance in the final set as she completely outclassed Jabeur to seal a scintillating victory with an astounding comeback.
With her remarkable victory, Rybakina has become the youngest Wimbledon champion after Petra Kvitova in 2011.
