LONDON -- Marketa Vondrousova became the first unseeded woman to win Wimbledon in a stunning 6-4, 6-4 upset over No. 6 Ons Jabeur on Saturday.
"After everything I've been through, it's amazing I can stand here and hold this," Vondrousova said while holding the championship trophy on court after the match. "Tennis is crazy."
Once a top-15 player and 2019 French Open finalist, Vondrousova, a lefty, has been hampered by injuries and pain in her left wrist. She underwent multiple surgeries in the three years that followed her Roland Garros run, and last year she attended Wimbledon as a tourist with a cast on her left arm.
