Marketa Vondrousova revealed the tattoo she will get along with her coach after winning the Wimbledon title.
The 24-year-old tennis player defeated Ons Jabeur 6-4, 6-4 to claim her first Grand Slam on Saturday, July 15th, becoming the first female tennis player to win Wimbledon without being seeded in the Open Era.
On her way to the title, she defeated Peyton Stearns, Veronika Kudermetova (12th seed), Donna Vekic (20th seed), Marie Bouzkova (32nd seed), Jessica Pegula (4th seed), Elina Svitolina, and Jabeur (6th seed).
Prior to her Wimbledon triumph, Vondrousova had reached the final of the 2019 French Open but lost to Ashleigh Barty 6-1, 6-3, giving the Australian her first Grand Slam title.
Apart from her on-court achievements, the Czech player has drawn attention on the WTA tour due to the abundance of tattoos she has, something uncommon among tennis players, and as she herself admitted, she's not even sure how many tattoos she has on her body.
Recently, Vondrousova shared that she made a deal with her coach to get a tattoo each time she wins a Grand Slam.
"I have a bet with my coach. If I win a Grand Slam, he's going to get [a tattoo], so I hope I will [win Wimbledon]. Yeah, I mean, we'll see what happens," Vondrousova said in a press conference before the match against Jabeur.
"I think we are going to get a little strawberry somewhere (laughing). Yeah, that's true. There's no way out, no," she added.
After claiming the Venus Rosewater Dish trophy, Vondrousova soared to world No. 10 and secured the fifth position in the race to the WTA Finals rankings. Taking a week off from tournaments, the Czech player will swiftly return to the courts at the WTA 250 BNP Paribas Warsaw Open, where she holds the second seed position, just behind the world No. 1, Iga Swiatek
