The Canadian teenager beat four Grand Slam champions to claim the Maters 1000 title in Montreal. The 18-year-old becomes the second-youngest woman in the Open Era to defeat four Grand Slam champions in a single tournament. Serena Williams was 17 years old when she won the US Open in 1999.  <\/p><p>Naomi Osaka won the opening set 6-2 and the pressure was on Mboko but the Canadian ace replied with winning the second set 6-4. The decider set was one-way traffic as the 4-time major champions won just one game and Mboko dispatched her 6-1. The 18-year-old will jump from 85th to 25th in the world after this win. <\/p><p>Mboko joined Faye Urban in 1969 and Bianca Andreescu in 2019 as the only Canadians to win the home event in the open era. During this run, she beat <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/upsets-galore-in-canada-coco-gauff-casper-ruud-holger-rune-crash-out-in-national-bank-open-2025-round-of-16\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Coco Gauff in the fourth round<\/a> and then, overcame Elana Rybakina in semifinals by saving a match point. <\/p><p>The impact of Mboko&rsquo;s title in Montreal was so unreal that men&rsquo;s singles final between Shelton and Khachanov in Toronto was stopped for a while as the crowd erupts mid-match. Both stars were confused and Ben Shelton asked the umpire about the whole drama.
