After her 4-6, 6-2, 6-2 win over Garbine Muguruza; we take a look at the social media reaction from those in the tennis community.
Kim Clijsters and Billie Jean King are among those to tweet about it; the former has significance; as she gave Kenin a tour round at the Miami Open as a child.

Also fellow WTA players congratulated with among others the likes of Madison Keys, Jelena Ostapenko, Caroline Garcia; as well as the last Grand Slam winner, Bianca Andreescu who of course was not involved in Melbourne.
In addition, there was also a lot of positive reaction to her dad/coach Alexander who filmed the reaction speech; even though of course it was being televised all around the world!
