L'édition 2023 de Wimbledon a rendu son verdict. Pas d'Iga Swiatek, Aryna Sabalenka ou Elena Rybakina pour soulever le trophée cette fois. La nouvelle championne se nomme... Marketa Vondrousova ! Dans un match sous haute tension pour les deux joueuses, la Tchèque a pris le dessus sur Ons Jabeur en 1h20 de jeu, 6-4, 6-4. Après sa défaite en finale de Roland-Garros 2019 contre Ashleigh Barty, Vondrousova remporte à 24 ans son premier titre du Grand Chelem, son deuxième en carrière. L'histoire est belle. Pour la Tunisienne, les déceptions s'enchaînent. Déjà battue en finale de Wimbledon et de l'US Open l'année dernière, elle perd sa troisième finale en Grand Chelem en l'espace d'un an...

00:00 I mean relief, because when I was 40,
00:05 40 love up, I almost couldn't breathe.
00:08 It's just like everything is on you.
00:12 I'm just very happy that I stayed in my head
00:17 and I just kept it together.
00:19 It was really tough in some moments,
00:21 but I think it was just a great match.
00:24 We had some great rallies.
00:26 She's an amazing player, she's an amazing person.
00:29 That was the tough part also.
00:31 We know each other very well.
00:33 I'm just very happy that I kept fighting
00:36 in the important moments.
00:38 Hi, Margaret. Tom Hopkinson from Sunday Mirror.
00:46 You said that you plan to get a new tattoo tomorrow
00:49 and that Jan was going to be getting one as well.
00:51 Have you had time to think about what that might be
00:54 and as importantly, what his might be?
00:57 I think I'll choose for him,
01:00 but maybe we'll get the same one.
01:02 We talked before the tournament and he said,
01:05 "Maybe if you win a Grand Slam, then I'll do it."
01:08 And then this is happening.
01:10 I hope he's not going to go back.
01:13 I think I'm just going to make him do it.
01:17 We'll see, but I hope we can make it happen here.
01:26 Martina Navratilova said before the final
01:28 that you should hope for the roof to be closed.
01:30 It obviously was closed.
01:32 When did you find out it was going to be closed
01:34 and how did that go about?
01:36 I presume you were quite glad that it was closed.
01:38 I played a couple of matches under the roof.
01:41 We played with Jessica at the end of the match
01:44 and then with Alina it was the same thing.
01:47 I think it's better for me.
01:49 I think they told us around 10 and I had a warm-up at 11.
01:55 I just said, "Let's go outside."
01:57 It was very windy, so it was a bit different.
02:00 I just wanted to eat and get everything done.
02:03 I just wanted to stick to the plan and we went to hit at 11.
02:08 I was really happy they closed the roof
02:10 because it's very different in the windy weather.
02:13 Could you explain a little more about how you think
02:20 it helps you to be in that closed environment
02:24 and without any wind?
02:26 I also just wanted to ask you,
02:28 what to you is the best part of winning this championship?
02:33 The roof can help you with serve.
02:37 You don't have to focus on the wind so much.
02:40 I feel like everything's the same on every side.
02:45 I think you just have to focus on the game,
02:48 not on the wind and not even on the sun.
02:51 I think that's a good thing.
02:54 I'm used to playing indoors.
02:56 We practice in Prague in winter indoors.
03:00 I always play good indoors.
03:02 I was like, "Maybe that's going to help me."
03:06 Winning is an amazing feeling.
03:10 I have my husband here, my little sister.
03:14 She came also on Friday.
03:19 I'm just very happy to share it with the people I have here.
03:22 In Paris, it was a bit sad.
03:24 I couldn't go there to hug them.
03:27 Now this happened, so I think just to share it with them,
03:31 it's amazing.
03:33 Hi, Marketa.
03:36 I just wonder how impossible did this feel last year
03:39 when you had the cast on your wrist?
03:41 What was the process of getting back to believe
03:44 that you could challenge for these titles?
03:47 I had a cast last year at that time,
03:50 so it was impossible.
03:53 I was watching my best friend here playing Quali
03:56 and I was a tourist here.
03:59 When I was coming back, I didn't know what was going to happen
04:03 and if I could play at that level again.
04:06 This seems impossible.
04:10 Even on grass, I didn't play well before.
04:15 I think it was the most impossible grand slam for me to win.
04:20 I didn't even think of it.
04:22 When we came, I was like, "Just try to win a couple of matches."
04:26 Now this happened, it's crazy.
04:29 Your husband in the box was very calm,
04:35 not showing much emotion.
04:37 Is that superstition?
04:39 He had his hand over his face a lot of the time.
04:41 Yeah, he's like this all the time.
04:43 But I think when I came to the box, he cried.
04:47 I saw him after and he cried a lot.
04:50 I think that's the first emotion I saw him over the eight years.
04:54 I think he cried on the wedding day also,
05:00 but that was it for the eight years.
05:02 So, that's it.
05:04 Congratulations.
05:07 You said that you have never believed
05:10 that you can win the Wimbledon.
05:13 But your playstyle obviously suits grass
05:16 because of the lefty and the slice.
05:19 During these past two weeks,
05:21 is there any specific match or moment
05:24 where you felt that you can play good on the grass?
05:28 When I saw the draw, it wasn't so easy.
05:33 I had Veronika, then I had Dona,
05:36 and they played amazing on grass in the tournaments before.
05:39 I was like, "Okay, let's try."
05:41 Then I beat them in two sets.
05:44 I was like, "Okay, maybe something can happen here."
05:48 I think I was just open-minded.
05:51 I didn't have much stress until today.
05:54 I think you just have to believe in yourself.
05:59 I was just trying not to think much about the title and everything.
06:03 I think you just have to stay focused and in your head
06:08 and have the small circle around you
06:10 and do the same things as you always do.
06:13 I feel like anything can happen.
06:16 This is amazing.
06:18 Hi, Margarita. Dan from Sky.
06:21 You alluded to it earlier,
06:23 but how much sweeter does this feel
06:25 after the friendship in the final, after the Olympics
06:27 and the injuries you've had?
06:29 It must make the journey and the tough moments worth it.
06:31 I was thinking, we played finals in Berlin in doubles
06:35 and my mum was there watching.
06:37 She was so sad.
06:38 She told me, "I don't want to be second all the time."
06:41 I was like, "Okay, Mum. We'll try today."
06:44 She was like, "I'm not coming. I just want to watch TV."
06:48 I was a bit nervous before.
06:53 When we came onto the court, I was like, "Okay, let's see what's going to happen."
06:58 I didn't start well, but I feel like I was so calm
07:03 and I felt really good.
07:04 I was just trying to put every ball into the play.
07:08 I'm just so happy that I could stay focused.
07:13 It's very tough and people are cheering and everything.
07:17 When it was 40-0, I couldn't breathe.
07:19 I was thinking to myself, "Please, just be over."
07:25 I was crazy nervous.
07:27 It was such a relief when I put the match point in.
07:30 Hi, Margarita. Congratulations.
07:33 Obviously, your win is quite the story, but your cat's also become a story.
07:36 I have to ask if you've checked in on him yet.
07:38 Is he going to be getting any treats? Maybe a friend now that you've won?
07:41 Of course, I think I'm going to buy her some good fish.
07:45 She's with the cat sitter now and my mum is coming tomorrow to watch her.
07:50 She has to wait for us, but I think she doesn't really care what's happening.
07:56 I'm going to buy her something good.
08:01 What have been the biggest surprises to you about what's happened along the way and then today?
08:07 I think I just kept my nerves together and stayed calm.
08:14 In my head, I was really calm the whole match.
08:17 I think the semis were more nervous than this final.
08:23 I think everybody was surprised how calm I was.
08:28 My coach told me after the final that I couldn't believe how calm I was.
08:33 I think that was the main key to this title.
08:37 I just kept believing and I just kept calm even when she broke me to laugh too.
08:43 I was just talking to myself and told myself to stay focused and keep it together.
08:50 Just one follow-up. How were you able to do that?
08:53 I don't know.
08:55 I don't really know. I feel like I just believed in my game since the tournament started.
09:04 I just felt really good.
09:06 I talked to myself a lot in the matches.
09:12 I knew I was playing good, so I just tried to stay calm and keep it together.
09:18 Congratulations. Well done.
09:24 What did you say in the moment?
09:26 Also, a tough question if you had to summarize this whole Wimbledon experience into one word or one phrase.
09:37 I would say crazy for sure.
09:39 As I said, I didn't play well before on Graz.
09:44 When we were coming here, I was like, "Okay, just play without stress."
09:49 I just tried to win a couple of matches and then this happened.
09:54 It's unbelievable.
09:56 I think nobody would have told you this before when we were coming here.
10:01 I even had a chance to win.
10:03 I was unseeded.
10:04 It's such a crazy journey.
10:08 I can't believe it still.
10:13 Did you feel differently coming into this final than you did into the Paris final?
10:19 Can you talk about those different emotions and whether having played a Grand Slam final before gave you some knowledge ahead of this one?
10:30 I was 19 in the first final, so I just remember it was such a stress.
10:37 I just wanted to do well.
10:39 It was a big thing in Czech and everybody was talking about it.
10:43 I think she just crushed me.
10:46 It was a very fast match and I didn't even enjoy it.
10:50 I was very sad after.
10:52 I just told myself, "If this happens again, you have to enjoy every moment."
10:58 "Even though if I lose, I just have to enjoy."
11:03 If I would have lost today, I would have just enjoyed this moment.
11:07 It's such a big achievement.
11:09 I just really enjoyed this match today.
11:12 What tattoo do you think you'll get for your design?
11:17 I don't know yet.
11:19 I'll show you guys on Instagram after.
11:21 What do you think the person that decided to cancel your individual contract is thinking right now?
11:33 I don't know.
11:34 We'll see what's going to happen.
11:37 I'm just going to talk with my agents and we'll see what's going to happen.
11:42 gonna happen.
