Who won the Wimbledon (Women's Single) Tennis Championship 2022?

Concept

The Wimbledon Championships is one of the four Grand Slam tennis tournaments, played annually on grass courts in London. The Women's Singles title goes to the player who wins the final match of that single-elimination draw.

Application

In the 2022 Wimbledon Women's Singles final, Elena Rybakina won the championship, defeating Ons Jabeur 3-6, 6-2, 6-2. This was her first Grand Slam singles title and the first ever Wimbledon singles crown won under the Kazakhstan flag.

Contrast

• Ons Jabeur was the finalist she beat, so Jabeur did not lift the trophy that year.

• Naomi Osaka, a former hard-court Grand Slam champion, did not reach the latter stages of this event.

• Casper Ruud is a male player and the 2022 French Open men's runner-up, so he cannot be the women's singles champion at all.
