Guo Hanyu and Kristina Mladenovic won the Wimbledon women's doubles title, defeating second seeds Gabriela Dabrowski and Luisa Stefani. Mladenovic, who previously suffered a long-term injury, achieved her first Wimbledon win.
Chinese and French pair Guo Hanyu and Kristina Mladenovic outwitted second seeds Gabriela Dabrowski and Luisa Stefani 6-3, 7-5 to win the Wimbledon women’s doubles title on Sunday for their first major triumph together.
Mladenovic, who won six grand slam doubles titles between 2018 and 2022, suffered a long-term injury that left her on crutches last year. She paired up with Guo earlier this year.
“It feels like a dream ... I definitely cannot believe what just happened now,” Mladenovic, 34, said after her maiden Wimbledon win.
Tenth seeds Guo and Mladenovic were quick to read Dabrowski’s early lobs and raced to a 5-0 lead. The Canadian-Brazilian pairing of Dabrowski and Stefani fought back to win the next three games, but it was not enough to save the set.
Dabrowski and Stefani looked much more in their element as they pushed for a break in the second set, but their opponents saved two break points as Mladenovic’s strong forehands across the court helped them stay even at 5-5.
Guo’s backhand returns from the net set up a break point in the 11th game, which the Chinese 28-year-old, playing in her first major final, won with a cross-court backhand at a tight angle.
