Barbora Krejcikova’s unexpected triumph at the 2021 Roland Garros is still resonating five years later, according to her former coach, Ales Kartus. Krejcikova, ranked 33rd in the world at the time, remarkably won both the singles and doubles titles at the prestigious tournament. Kartus expressed disbelief at the achievement, questioning if the events truly occurred and needing to re-watch final match highlights to confirm the reality of her success. Prior to Roland Garros, Krejcikova had only recently broken into the top 100 rankings, making her victory all the more surprising. The win marked a career-defining moment for the Czech player, propelling her to international stardom. Kartus’s comments highlight the extraordinary nature of Krejcikova’s performance in Paris.
