Canada has a new tennis star. Her name is Vicky Mboko.
No one expected the GTA teen to win the women’s singles title at the National Bank Open in Montreal. But win it she did. And she steamrolled over four Grand Slam champions to do it.
Record-breaking rise
It’s been a shining season for the 18-year-old singles player.
After a series of wins at lower levels, she made it to the third round of the French Open. Then, to the second round of Wimbledon. Her world ranking jumped from 333rd to 85th.
