Canadian teenager Victoria Mboko staged a stunning comeback on Thursday to defeat four-time Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka 2-6 6-4 6-1 claiming her maiden WTA 1000 title at the Canadian Open. The 18-year-old staged a remarkable comeback after losing the opening set to the Japanese former world number one,

Osaka has made some progress since returning in last year's Australian Open. She won two matches in both the Australian Open and Wimbledon this year, has earned $725,727 in prize money so far and reached the No. 49 spot in the WTA rankings, with a higher ranking likely on the way by making the final.

Mboko has played so much tennis this season for one reason — because she wins and wins and wins some more. She is 53-9 at all levels this season. That is a ton of winning. In addition to Osaka and Rybakina, she beat world No. 2 Coco Gauff and 2020 Australian Open champion Sofia Kenin on the way to the title.
