Mertens sends Rybakina packing; Djokovic ties mark

July 05, 2026

Former Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina suffered a shock third-round exit in a 7-6 (7/4), 6-1 defeat against Elise Mertens on Saturday.

Rybakina was hoping to follow her Australian Open triumph in January by winning Wimbledon for the second time.

But the world number two was unable to emulate her 2022 victory at the All England Club as Belgian 25th seed Mertens produced a major upset on Court One.

Rybakina, 27, also endured a disappointing early departure from the recent French Open, losing to Yuliia Starodubtseva in the second round.
