Kudermetova and Mertens win women's doubles final at Wimbledon

LONDON — Veronika Kudermetova secured her first Grand Slam title by teaming up with Elise Mertens to win the women's doubles final at Wimbledon on Sunday, rallying to beat Hsieh Su-Wei and Jelena Ostapenko 3-6, 6-2, 6-4 on Centre Court. Kudermetova and Mertens were on opposite sides in the final in 2021 but were playing at Wimbledon together for the first time this year. They trailed 4-2 in the third set but won the last four games to seal the comeback. It is Mertens' fifth Grand Slam doubles title, and second at Wimbledon. In 2021, she teamed up with Hsieh to win a marathon final where they saved two match points against Kudermetova and Elena Vesnina. 'I lost that final and it was so painful,' Kudermetova said. 'Today I said to myself, I really want it. And it's mine now.' Hsieh has won the Wimbledon doubles title four times with three different partners. Ostapenko won the 2017 French Open singles title and was looking for a second major doubles title after winning the U.S. Open last year with Lyudmyla Kichenok. ___ AP tennis:

Kudermetova and Mertens win Wimbledon women's doubles title

Eighth seeds Veronika Kudermetova and Elise Mertens fought back from a set down to win their first Grand Slam as a pair, beating Hsieh Su-Wei and Jelena Ostapenko 3-6 6-2 6-4 in the Wimbledon women's doubles final on Sunday. It was the first major title for Russia's Kudermetova, while Belgian Mertens won her fifth Grand Slam in the category and a second Wimbledon triumph after her 2021 win with former partner Hsieh. Kudermetova held to go 3-1 up in the first set but the fourth seeds then won five straight games. Kudermetova led the charge in the second set, holding twice as the pair got three breaks in a row to force a third set. Hsieh won a prolonged exchange with Kudermetova from the baseline to get the first break of the third set before Ostapenko held without losing a point to go 4-2 up. But erroneous returns from Hsieh hit the net as the eighth seeds broke back, and Kudermetova held to go 5-4 up before Ostapenko went long to lose a 26-shot rally and bring up match point. Kudermetova's backhand from close range cut across the court to secure the match, finally fulfilling her dream of lifting the trophy at the All England Club after she lost the 2021 final with Elena Vesnina against Mertens and Hsieh.
