Sports Brief looks at the players who took home the trophies at the 2023 Wimbledon Championships.

Carlos Alcaraz (Men’s Singles)

The Spaniard cemented his status as the best male tennis player in the world right now, outlasting 23-time Grand Slam champion Novak Djokovic in a five-set thriller on Sunday.

Alcaraz came from a set down to beat the Serb 1-6, 7-6 (6), 6-1, 3-6, 6-4 and capture his first title at the All England Club.

He made history with the victory, becoming the first man born after 1990 to win at least two Grand Slam titles. The world No. 1 is also the reigning US Open champion.

Marketa Vondrousova (Women’s Singles)

The Czech star became the first unseeded woman to win the Wimbledon title in the Open era, beating Ons Jabeur in straight sets in the final on Saturday.

The 42nd-ranked player in the world needed just one hour and 20 minutes to record the 6-4, 6-4 win over the Tunisian, who lost in the final for the second straight year.

Neal Skupski/Wesley Koolhof (Men’s Doubles)

Britain's Neal Skupski captured a first Grand Slam men's doubles title at the All England Club alongside his Dutch partner Wesley Koolhof.

They defeated Horacio Zeballos and Marcel Granollers 6-4, 6-4 in the final to win the coveted title, per BBC.

Skupski made history with the victory, becoming the first Briton to win both the men's and mixed doubles titles at Wimbledon since 1926. He won the mixed doubles titles in 2021 and 2022.

Hsieh Su-Wei/Barbora Strycova (Women’s Doubles)

The 2019 champions reigned supreme once again in the women’s doubles tournament, with Hsieh and Strycova beating No. 3 seeds Elise Mertens and Storm Hunter 7-5, 6-4 in the Wimbledon final on Centre Court on Sunday.

Strycova came out of retirement this year and managed to win in her last Wimbledon campaign.

Hsieh loves playing in this event, winning the women’s doubles crown the last three times she played at SW19.

They made history with their win, becoming the oldest women’s doubles pair by combined age to win a Grand Slam title. Strycova and Hsieh are both 37.

Mate Pavic/Lyudmila Kichenok (Mixed Doubles)

Pavic and Kichenok captured the mixed doubles title, beating Belgium's Joran Vliegen and China's Xu Yifan 6-4, 6-7 (9), 6-3 in the Wimbledon final on Thursday.

It was a sweet victory for Kichenok, who won a Grand Slam title for the first time in her career, per WTA.

Tokito Oda (Wheelchair Men’s Singles)

The Japanese star became the youngest male Wimbledon champion, beating Alfie Hewett 6-4, 6-2 in the men’s wheelchair singles final on Sunday.

The 17-year-old has now won back-to-back Grand Slams after capturing the French Open last month.

Diede de Groot (Wheelchair Women’s Singles)

The Dutch star continued her dominance, defeating doubles partner Jiske Griffioen 6-2, 6-1 in the ladies’ wheelchair singles final at Wimbledon on Saturday.

De Groot has now won 11 straight Grand Slam singles titles, dating back to the 2021 Australian Open.

Niels Vink (Wheelchair Quad Singles)

Vink produced a masterclass in the wheelchair quad final, beating Australian Heath Davidson in straight sets, 6-1, 6-2.

Alfie Hewett/Gordon Reid (Wheelchair Men’s Doubles)

Hewett and Reid nabbed their fifth Wimbledon wheelchair doubles title, beating Japan's Tokito Oda and Takuya Miki in three sets in the final.

They reclaimed the championship with a come-from-behind 3-6, 6-0, 6-3 win on Court One.

Diede de Groot/ Jiske Griffioen (Wheelchair Women’s Doubles)

De Groot and Griffioen defeated Kgothatso Montjane and Yui Kamiji 6–1, 6–4 in the final to win the ladies' doubles wheelchair tennis crown at the 2023 Wimbledon Championships.
