Maria Sakkari defeated Kamilla Rakhimova 6-3, 0-6, 7(10)-6(7) in the R64 of the Wimbledon 2026.
Ten aces to zero settled a match that swung wildly in between. After Maria Sakkari bageled the second set she'd taken 6-3, the third turned into a break-trading scramble — five breaks across the first nine games — before three aces in the deciding-set tiebreak gave her the free points Kamilla Rakhimova never found. Sakkari saved 10 of 15 break points and won the tiebreak 7-6(7) at Wimbledon, her second win in as many meetings.
