Barbora Krejcikova's victory in the Women's Wimbledon final against Jasmine Paolini was a thrilling and historic moment in tennis history. Krejcikova displayed exceptional skill, determination, and sportsmanship throughout the match, ultimately emerging as the deserving champion.
From the opening serve to the final point, Krejcikova showcased her versatility and adaptability on the court. Her powerful groundstrokes, precise volleys, and strategic shot selection kept Paolini on her toes and allowed Krejcikova to control the pace of the match. Despite facing a formidable opponent in Paolini, Krejcikova remained composed under pressure and executed her game plan flawlessly.
Nothing underscored that more than Barbora Krejčíková winning the Wimbledon title on Saturday.
The 28-year-old Czech and No. 31 seed became the eighth different woman to win Wimbledon in the last eight years when she beat No. 7 Jasmine Paolini, 6-2, 2-6, 6-4, in the ladies final.
“I think nobody really believes it,” she said. “Nobody believes that I got to the final. And nobody’s gonna believe that I won Wimbledon.
Krejcikova’s 6-2, 2-6, 6-4 triumph – her second Grand Slam singles win – is one that few, especially Krejcikova, would have thought possible two weeks ago. She had endured months of struggle with a back injury, and two years of battles with various other ailments. She had endured the lapses in confidence that accompany recovery from injury, even when she believed, as she always does, that one of the great ghosts of Centre Court was looking out for her from somewhere above.
 Grand Slam finals at 28 years old. Come Monday, she’ll have a top-five ranking. She has done it playing with a scrambling, never-say-die, ambitious style; an infectious smile; a scream, a fist pump.
That’s how Jasmine Paolini rolls. Roll along with her and with Krejcikova and their match today.
Maybe years down the road, events will transpire in such a way that will make this match, or the 2024 edition of Wimbledon, seem like a pivot point, or the heralding of some new era.
Krejcikova had pointed to sky after her win at the French Open in tribute to Novotna and later explained, "I know that all of this has happened because she is looking after me from up there."
Following her run at Wimbledon, Krejcikova will return to the top 10 in the rankings. The defending gold medalist in doubles with Katerina Siniakova, the pair will look to stand atop the podium yet again when the Olympics get underway at the end of the month at Roland Garros. Krejcikova will also be playing singles and will look to build on her momentum before the season turns to the hard court ahead of the US Open.
