Outcome_ Day 13 of Wimbledon 2024: Krejcikova Joins Two-Slam Club, Men’s and Women’s Doubles Champions Emerge

On the evening of July 13th, Beijing time, Barbora Krejcikova defeated No. 7 seed Martina Trevisan 6-2, 2-6, 6-4 in the women’s singles final at Wimbledon 2024 to win her first Wimbledon title. This is her second Grand Slam singles title following her triumph at the French Open in 2021, making her the fourth Czech player in the Open Era to win the Wimbledon women’s singles title!

Before this year, Wimbledon was the Grand Slam event where Krejcikova had the least success; her best performance at Wimbledon was reaching the fourth round in 2021. The Czech player overcame four top-20 players – Collins, Ostapenko, Rybakina, and Trevisan – en route to the title, earning 2000 points and a £2.7 million champion’s prize. She will return to the top 10 in the world rankings next week, with her ranking for the season’s championships rising to No.7.

Krejcikova had previously won the Wimbledon women’s doubles title twice (partnering Strycova) in 2018 and 2022. Her triumph in the women’s singles this time makes her the 12th player in the Open Era to win titles in both the women’s singles and doubles events at Wimbledon.
