Former champion Rybakina crashes out of Wimbledon
- Former Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina, seeded 11th and aged 26, lost a rain-delayed third-round match to Clara Tauson on July 5, 2025, at Wimbledon.
- Rybakina's defeat followed struggles adjusting to the softer Court Two surface and a challenging season affected by her coach's WTA ban for abusive behavior earlier in the year.
- Tauson, 22 and seeded 23rd, won 7-6 , 6-3 in two hours and 16 minutes, crediting her persistence and hard work for the victory in a match paused twice for rain.
- Rybakina committed 31 unforced errors, including a crucial forehand long on match point, making this her worst Wimbledon result since winning the title in 2022.
- This loss highlights a frustrating season for Rybakina amid rising young contenders like Tauson and Mirra Andreeva, who reached the last 16 without dropping a set.
