Canadian teenager Victoria Mboko rallied to beat four-time Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka 2-6, 6-4, 6-1 on Thursday and cap a fairytale run at the WTA Canadian Open with her first WTA title.
Mboko, playing in her first WTA final, denied Osaka her first tour-level title since the 2021 Australian Open.
Over the course of the one-hour, 45-minute contest, the 18-year-old wore down the former world number one who has struggled to find consistency since returning from maternity leave early in 2024. (AFP)
