It’s Iga Świątek, the five-time Grand Slam champion who spent 125 weeks as the world No. 1 between early 2022 and late 2024. She’s the No. 8 seed at Wimbledon, but she’s actually the world No. 4. Only four players are left in the draw now, and she is one of them — for the first time.

Iga Swiatek is the youngest woman since Serena Williams to own Grand Slam titles on all three surfaces after becoming Wimbledon's champion.

Jannik Sinner and Iga Swiatek were not expected to dominate Wimbledon like they did over the past two weeks. While Sinner advanced past the quarterfinals only once in his last five tries at The Championships, Swiatek reached the final eight the only time in 2023.
