Rybakina claims historic Wimbledon title with comeback win over ... (WTA Tennis)

Elena Rybakina came from a set down to defeat Ons Jabeur in the Wimbledon final and become the first Kazakh Grand Slam champion in history.

As in the second set, Rybakina faced the biggest challenge to her lead midway through the decider. Having passed that test, Rybakina motored to victory, breaking Jabeur again for 5-2 and then serving the match out at her first opportunity. Rybakina levelled the match with the minimum of fuss, slamming down four unreturned serves to close the set out. She upped her first serve percentage from 58% to 63%, but her movement was a crucial component of this passage of play. Throughout the second set, Rybakina impressed by repeatedly chasing down Jabeur's dropshots -- and then delivering the touch needed to hit finely angled winners off them. The World No.2 lost only four points on serve in total during the opener; and though Rybakina appeared to have settled midway through, she fell away with another sequence of cheap mistakes to lose the last eight points.

Ons Jabeur brings Tunisian tennis to the brink of history (The Guardian)

The 27-year-old is the first woman of north African or Arab descent to reach a grand slam final – and determined more compatriots will soon follow.

She’s walked in the footsteps of all those women and paved the way for a lot of young girls to follow. To the millions of young Tunisian girls watching, the message Jabeur sends is resoundingly clear. I chose to be the person that I am. “I see myself like I’m on a mission,” she said. “She loves all the little kids.

Elena Rybakina beats Ons Jabeur to win women's championship at ... (ESPN)

After dropping the first set, Elena Rybakina regained her footing with her big serve and powerful forehand to beat Ons Jabeur and win the Wimbledon women's ...

Now she was just a game away from the biggest victory of her career -- and she got to serve for it. Jabeur appeared to give herself an opportunity to really change the course of things while down 3-2 in the third. She broke once more to begin the third, and went up 3-1. When another forehand went awry, Jabeur broke at love to take the opening set and threw an uppercut as she walked to the sideline. Rybakina is a 23-year-old who was born in Moscow and has represented Kazakhstan since 2018, when that country offered her funding to support her tennis career. There were glimpses of both in the opening game, including a 119 mph service winner on the match's initial point.

Elena Rybakina Wins Wimbledon and Her First Grand Slam Title (The New York Times)

Rybakina, who was born and raised in Russia, started representing Kazakhstan after the Russian tennis federation gave up on her. She beat Ons Jabeur in ...

She did a lot of jogging in the first set, which she won when Rybakina sent a forehand into the middle of the net. Rybakina broke Jabeur’s serve in the first game of the second set, and Jabeur never truly recovered. Forehands that had sailed long at the beginning began diving into the corners and hitting the edges of the lines. She charged the net to close out points, and sealed the set with an ace that Jabeur could only stare at. At any moment, she can cut the ball on an angle and with a spin that makes it knuckle as it clears the net and finds the unguarded area of the court or smack a forehand down the line. On the court, Jabeur and Rybakina also promised one of the sport’s ultimate contrasts in styles. Tall and long and powerful with one of the most dangerous serves in the game, she was born in Russia and lived there until she became an adult. Rybakina struggled with her forehand as Jabeur danced across the grass showing off the array of her arsenal. Organizers made the move at the behest of the British government and the royal family. Rybakina told the Centre Court crowd that it had been an honor to play in front of the royal box. She is Muslim and the match fell on, Eid al-Adha — the feast of the sacrifice. On the final point, Rybakina watched Jabeur, the No. 2 ranked player in the world, send one last backhand return wide and strutted to the net with barely a celebration.
