Kazakhstan’s Elena Rybakina won her country’s first Grand Slam singles title, beating Tunisia’s Ons Jabeur 3-6, 6-1, 6-2 at Wimbledon in the women’s final on Saturday.

The 23-year-old, appearing in her first grand slam final, started slowly but gradually found her rhythm and powerful serve to overcome Jabeur.

Rybakina, who was born in Russia but has represented Kazakhstan since 2018, was the youngest women’s finalist at Wimbledon since 2015 when Garbine Muguruza was 21.
