Barbora Krejčíková will be oozing confidence when she competes at the 2021 Wimbledon after winning the recent French Open. 
 
The Czech Republic star has a career-high singles ranking of world No. 15 in the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) rankings and she is currently ranked 17th. 
 
Krejčíková is a seven-time Grand Slam champion including the 2021 French Open singles title.

The 25-year-old won the women's doubles titles at the 2018 French Open, 2018 Wimbledon and 2021 French Open and the mixed doubles titles at the Australian Open in 2019, 2020, and 2021.  
 
Krejčíková beat Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova in the French Open final in three sets to claim her first Grand Slam singles title earlier this month. 
 
The Brno-born player became just the third Czech champion in the tournament's history, after Hana Mandlíková 40 years earlier.
 
Krejčíková, who won her first WTA singles title at Strasbourg last month, has also won 14 singles titles on the ITF Circuit.
 
Former world number one tennis player Chris Evert told Eurosport that Krejčíková is now a force to be reckoned with after winning the French Open.
 
“It wasn’t until last fall that she broke into the top 100 in the world, it’s just amazing,” Evert said. 
 
“This is a woman who always wanted to be known as a singles player. She has won multiple grand slam doubles titles and was known as a doubles specialist but not a singles specialist.
 
"But this has been her dream and her goal and she’s proving to a lot of people that she’s a force to be reckoned with in singles as well as doubles.”
