Victoria Mboko's incredible run at the Canadian Open came to a victorious end on Thursday night when the 18-year-old beat four-time major champion Naomi Osaka in the final. It's Mboko's first career WTA title.
Mboko overcame being down the first set 6–2. She captured the final two sets 6–4, 6–1 to capture the Canadian Open title. By beating Osaka, Mboko officially beat four major champions on her way to the title. The Canadian beat Elena Rybakina in the semifinals, took down Coco Gauff in the quarters and beat Sofia Kenin before that. Mboko is the second youngest women's player to defeat four major champions in a tournament in tennis history. The youngest? Serena Williams when she was 17 years old at the 1999 U.S. Open.
