The Czech Republican ace required three sets to win her first title since the Wimbledon 2023. Interesting fact is she will be back in Wimbledon again but as the unseeded player. <\/p><p>Vondrousova had a dream campaign in the Berlin Open. The 25-year-old outclassed the world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka in the semifinals in straight sets. She beat Keys, Shnaider, Jabeur, Sabalenka and Wang in a journey to the final. The Czech Republican ace came through a wrist injury which kept him out for almost a year. <\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Back in the winner's circle &#128154; <br><br>Marketa Vondrousova just won her first title since Wimbledon 2023 &#129327; <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/BTO?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>#BTO<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/TRYh4qpDOb\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/TRYh4qpDOb<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Tennis Channel (@TennisChannel) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TennisChannel\/status\/1936762807652945970?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>June 22, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p><strong>Also Read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/casper-ruud-injury-update-former-world-no-2-withdraws-from-wimbledon-with-a-knee-injury\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Casper Ruud Injury Update: Former World No. 2 Withdraws from Wimbledon With a Knee Injury<\/a><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Marketa Vondrousova Wins Her First Title Since Wimbledon 2023 <\/h2><p>Marketa Vondrousova, ranked 164th in the world, appeared in her first final since winning Wimbledon in 2023.

Injuries hurt his performance over the years and she needed one breakthrough in the year. She also becomes only woman player to win the Wimbledon and a grass-court title in last one decade.
