Ostapenko is the third wildcard to lift the title 🏆

[@centisgercans1731]

She won the previous title in Luxembourg 2019 also with the wildcard.

[@brianwesonga9589]

@@centisgercans1731 she always win when no one expects her to do so😂. Maybe it's something to do with pressure

[@centisgercans1731]

​@@brianwesonga9589 It could be so. In the aftermatch interview she told that came to Eastbourne without expectations.

[@olivermartinez5204]

She beat Pavlyuchenkova, Jabeur, Kasatkina, Rybakina and Kontaveit. Nice. Congrats Jelena!

[@rockabye274]

it was one of Jelena's very best tourneys in her career! She beat solid players through each stage of it.

[@ilmarsapnc8461]

Aļjona. (Jeļena in passport).

[@sarahhoward6588]

I have to admit, I didn’t see this coming! Ostapenko is showing some fantastic form. Her serve is so much better. If she plays like this, she’s a contender for Wimbledon for sure!

[@notsohandytim5090]

Both of these girls would make delicious Serena sandwiches.

[@netgodzilla1]

Her second serve still her biggest weakness

[@livamilAVA]

Im just happy that two Baltic ladies played the final ♥️♥️♥️🇱🇻🇪🇪

[@oliverdiamante761]

It’s always a joy watching ostapenko play. She’s a go big or go home type of girl. I hope she goes deep in Wimbledon.

[@ithikithik]

Wow. Didn't expect that Ostapenko played at this level. She did really well. Congrats.

[@cdfchung]

Ostapenko's offence is so much fun to watch! Hope she goes far at Wimbledon!

[@MarioBeart]

When she plays well she's the player who fires me up the most with her style. She's very dynamic and I love the way she hooks the ball with her clean shots.

[@cyrocyanide]

How the match went: (Ostapenko leading 5-1 first set) Kontaveit: I'm making a comeback- Ostapenko: Nope. Kontaveit: Fine. But in the second set- Ostapenko: Nope.

[@tonyraskolnikov8787]

Even in F RG '17 she made a ton of UE before starting to put everything inside. It's one of the three most consistent tournament performances of her after this RG final & WMB '18.

[@drrakeshrj8035]

Ostapenko playing almost exactly the same way as in French open 2017. When she is playing her best tennis, it's like nobody can literally beat her

[@collinsfemmville1067]

My baby back to winning ways ..just look at that smile , she's dangerous when playing with clear mimd and noffin to lose , what a staggering performance and sure feels good moving forward in the grass court season.. красавица алона

Perhaps the single most impressive performance I've seen on the WTA this year, she looked unplayable.

Jelena is one of my back pocket favs, glad to see her get one.

Baltic Final is really intresting

[@andrecandela2117]

I am so happy for Ostapenko. Kontaveit.also had a great tournament. She defended well against Golubic. Wish them luck in Wimbledon.

[@bigrobsydney]

Solid play this week. She is looking sharp.

Prefect court view. This is the way a court should be filmed for all tournaments.

[@eghosaswordontennis7521]

Ostapenko is definitely a dark horse for Wimbledon

[@joshua4522]

And Kerber too😂😁😁

[@matioch2979]

i used to think that also but she will propably lose in the first or second round to a much hungrier and more dedicated opponent

[@Harthyung]

She went to the 2018 WB SF only to lose to the eventual winner Kerber so we wont be surprised if she wins WB this year 😁

[@dominicspiller481]

Yes likewise Angie

[@brianwesonga9589]

Actually even in times where she's played badly, tennis pundits have always had her as a contender at any trophy. Her playing style of all or nothing makes her capable of winning anything and beating anyone, this time too, they better take note of her

[@goodlife3417]

AAA SO PROUD OF HER 🥺

[@MaggieBurgerSmit]

Congrats Jelena🥳 a pity Anette could not take it to 3 sets, would have liked to see more of this high quality tennis 🏆💫

[@dusanstanisic7567]

An excellent final and a highly entertaining match. Kontaveit probably played her best match of the week, but when Ostapenko is in this form there is no stopping her. It's very encouraging the fact that she only lost sets to last week finalists (Jabeur and Kasatkina). She has the game to win wimbledon but can she keep the consistency to do it? Well she won a slam once so we know she can do it. As for kontaveit what can you say. A really good player but just can't beat the best when they are at their best. And that was evident today from the get go. Still an excellent week for her too. Let's hope these two can do something at wimbledon this year!

[@tirianchien4781]

Ostapenko comes strong this season!

[@kmw30pianist]

Incredible! So many return shot winners! 👏👏👏

[@rupinjeremiah9589]

10 years ago who'd have thought there would be an all Baltic final in a WTA 500 event! Tennis has grown well.

[@diha2271]

Lithuania still need to step up ;)

[@dimvalsgames9721]

I like both of those 2 girls so I am very happy they make it to the finals congrats to Jelena she plays awesome lately the good old Jelena we loved and like back then keep it up girl and thanks for the vid WTA.👌👏👍😉

[@cevr7847]

Seeing Ostapenko shine with her forceful groundies makes me smile. I wish Madison Keys could do this cuz I don’t know anyone who takes bigger cuts at the ball than Keys.

[@cupidslover3]

Yes would be great for Madison to do the same. Ostapenko has an extra gear though I feel and is a much more efficient power hitter...her swing is quite simple on both sides

[@samisankey3104]

Madison has the extra gear like Jelena (she proved this at Cincy 2019) but the problem is the ground strokes for Madison. Her serve is better than Jelena’s but she misses so many rallying balls. I’m starting to think she has a nervous thing in her head that makes her go too much in big moments. She like Jelena loses when they aren’t near their best a lot which is something they need to work on to get consistent results.

[@tomamoe]

Always graceful in victory, Ostapenko!

[@yomo1690]

Not so graceful in defeat!

[@tomamoe]

@@yomo1690 No 😄

[@marcotuliopenalbavalladare9704]

What a match; what a week! Congrats! It is a fantastic prep for Wimbledon! Enjoy this huge win!

[@marcotuliopenalbavalladare9704]

I have seen this final match several times and a couple of factors in @Jelena’s game captured my attention. She remained calm when her opponent started to play better. I think that this was an important trigger of her excellent tennis. The other one was the combining of power strokes and playing with less risk when she could.

[@jamievidd775]

Nice sportsmanship at the end. Jelena is back!

[@njesseable]

Jelena is on FIRE 🔥🔥🔥😎

[@brandonaldaymachuse6669]

Hope she can continue this form in Wimbledon. She plays Layla Fernandez in R1.

[@khairilanuarothman3869]

Great grass court contest: quick one-twos and superb return games. Jelena, if she retains this form, could be one to watch on the Wimbledon lawns; which is good news to me. 👍👏

[@paariraaju9688]

Excellent tennis!!!Congrats ostapenko. Merciless winning shots 👌👌👍

[@dbj4th443]

If Jelena can improve her 2nd serve and add a little more consistency with the ground strokes then she might win another slam and maybe a fixture in the top 10

[@user-vc4xo7hw5q]

brilliant performance. so pleased thate she is showing her talent again

[@rsb512]

Ostapenko has picked herself up off the ground from struggling so much after she won the French open four years ago to really being a dynamic player again. I think she can win more slams. I only wish Kasatkina who started off her career so well and then collapsed can come back strong too. although she lacks the weapons Jelena has..

[@khamisahketak5971]

Yes jelena, wins for Wimbledon! Go girl

[@kjbennie9245]

HaVnt seen her play this well in YEARS! Since 2017 RG

[@ghanshyam1340]

Great. Jelena played here at Eastbourne just like her RG Title run a few years ago. If she can replicate that type of clean & hard striking of balls at the lawns of SW 19, who knows she might be having her 2nd Slam on as many different surface. So, happy to see her winning titles on all three surfaces now - Clay at RG, Hard at Seoul & now Grass at Eastbourne...🤗

[@rafarequeni822]

Ostapenko's serve is still nowhere near a great weapon - kudos to the highlights for showing the 4 consecutive return winners from Kontaveit to break her to love - but at least it's not the liability it was once. With her powerful, clean, accurate shots from the baseline the only think Ostapenko needs is putting the ball in play and not being killed outright by the return.

[@user-be5qg7mr1s]

alright Jelena...I see you using that slice serve to set up your powerful groundstrokes. She peaking at the right time

[@marctheprobo655]

Finally a new title for Ostapenko...en route to Wimbledon...

[@matissmateuss6146]

lol in so much comments I didn’t see this coming! really?

[@pljms]

I remember watching Ostapenko winning at Eastbourne in 2021 and wondering how a player with such power and precision had only won one Grand Slam tournament. Three years later that's still the case but grass seems to suit her game better than any other surface and if she's going to win another major perhaps it will be at Wimbledon.

[@poetriesbyavinishpathak5622]

Way to jelena she has more power now good luck for wimbledon

[@michaelklotz2758]

Wimbledon will be so amazing this year

[@ronwatts5827]

Ostapenk doesn't believe in rallying..... 4-5 shots then down the line OR (short angle)cross short. It's nice to see her play so well. Kid seemed, for quite a while after the French Open, to drift. She's not drifting anymore!!
