Marketa Vondrousova on Saturday, shocked Ons Jabeur 6-4 6-4 to win the 2023 Wimbledon women’s singles final.
The Unseeded Czech took advantage of a nervous performance from the Tunisian to claim a stunning victory.
There have been a string of surprise Grand Slam winners in a period of flux for the women’s game but Wimbledon had been the exception until now.
Vondrousova climbed up the stands Pat Cash-style to hug her team in the players’ box, while Jabeur sat disconsolately in her chair.
She said: “I don’t know what’s happening now. Ons, congratulations, you’re such an inspiration for all of us, I hope you are going to win one day.
“After everything I’ve been through – I had a cast on this time last year – and now I can’t believe I’m holding this trophy.”
