Victoria Mboko Shines at the National Bank Open WTA in Montreal.
Canadian tennis has a new star, and her name is Victoria Mboko. In a stunning display of power, poise, and precision, the 18-year-old rising talent captured her first WTA title at the 2025 National Bank Open in Montreal — making history as one of the youngest Canadian women to ever win the prestigious tournament.
Held at the IGA Stadium from August 4 to 10, the National Bank Open is one of the premier events on the WTA Tour, attracting the world’s top female players to compete in Canada’s tennis capital. This year’s edition drew record crowds and intense media attention, with Mboko’s performance turning heads from the opening rounds all the way to the final.
Facing seasoned competitors and top-seeded opponents, Victoria Mboko displayed incredible resilience and maturity beyond her years. In the championship match, she defeated world No. 6 in straight sets, sending the home crowd into a frenzy and solidifying her position as the future of Canadian tennis.
Her victory marks a major milestone for Tennis Canada and offers new hope for a post-Bianca generation of homegrown champions. With strong crowd support, a flawless serve game, and cool nerves under pressure, Mboko became the talk of the tennis world overnight — and a national sensation.
