Brit Katie Boulter Upsets Paula Badosa in First Round of Wimbledon

  • Katie Boulter secured a hard-fought victory over ninth-seeded Paula Badosa in a three-set match on Wimbledon’s Centre Court, advancing to the second round.
  • Boulter sought revenge after last year’s French Open loss to Badosa and battled a history of starting strong but losing momentum in recent matches.
  • The 28-year-old British No. 2 rallied after losing her serve in the final set to secure her fourth win against a top-10 opponent and is set to play against Argentine player Solana Sierra, who entered the tournament as a lucky loser, in the next round.
  • Martina Navratilova called Boulter’s win 'perhaps the sweetest win of her career,' while Boulter said she was ‘bricking it completely’ but happy to be through to the next round.
  • Boulter’s victory contributed to seven British players reaching Wimbledon’s second round, marking the highest number in a single day during the Open Era.
