Watching how Victoria Mboko sliced through the National Bank Open competition and took down four Grand Slam winners to her first WTA title, it's hard to imagine the 18-year-old Canadian was once nervous before tennis matches and easily flustered on the court.

Only Serena Williams did what Victoria Mboko did last week at a younger age. Here's what to know about this new teenage Canadian tennis star.

Canadian teenager Victoria Mboko completed a dream run to the National Bank Open title Thursday night, overcoming a slow and swollen right wrist start to beat Japanese star Naomi Osaka 2-6, 6-4, 6-1.

Mboko has played so much tennis this season for one reason — because she wins and wins and wins some more. She’s just doing it on ever-bigger stages. In addition to Osaka and Rybakina, she beat world No. 2 Coco Gauff and 2020 Australian Open champion Sofia Kenin on the way to the title.

Victoria Mboko didn’t even have a picture on the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) website before the Canadian Open in Montreal. Now, the 18-year-old has defeated four-time grand slam champion Naomi Osaka in the first WTA Tour final of her career.

Mboko has won 51 matches in 2025, two of those at a Grand Slam and seven on her Canadian Open title run. But she's here for the long haul.

Thunder Bay's tennis community is a growing one, thanks in part to the on-court achivements of Canadian pros like Victoria Mboko, the director of the city's tennis centre said.
