LAST YEAR
Barty claimed the first 14 points of the women's singles final and then held off Karolina Pliskova's comeback to win
for her second Grand Slam title. It was the first Wimbledon women's title match to go three sets since 2012. Barty became the first Australian woman to win Wimbledon since Evonne Goolagong Cawley in 1980. Barty would go on to earn her third major championship at the Australian Open this January, before suddenly announcing her retirement at age 25 in March. Djokovic beat Matteo Berrettini
for a third consecutive men's singles trophy at Wimbledon, sixth overall, and what, at the time, was a record-tying 20th Grand Slam title, pulling even with Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal for the men's career mark. (Nadal has since added two to his total.)
KEY STATISTICS
35 — Swiatek's current winning streak, which encompasses six tournament titles in a row and is tied for the longest by a woman this century.
22 — Nadal's career total of Grand Slam titles after his victories at this year's Australian Open and French Open, a record for a man and two ahead of Roger Federer, who is still sidelined after a series of knee operations, and Djokovic.
