Luisa Stefani makes history and secures unprecedented doubles final at Wimbledon

Brazilian Luisa Stefani and Canadian Gabriela Dabrowski secured a place in the women's doubles final of the Wimbledon Grand Slam, this Friday (10). The pair beat Japanese Shuko Aoyama and Taiwanese Liang En-Shuo by 2 sets to 0, with scores of 7-5 and 6-3, in a match that lasted 67 minutes.

This will be the first Grand Slam final in Luisa Stefani's career in the women's doubles category. The opponents of the Stefani/Dabrowski duo in the big decision will still be defined in another semifinal clash.

Despite strong competition, the number 1 duo in the world, formed by Kateřina Siniaková and Taylor Townsend, failed to advance and will not be present in the title decider.

Position in the ranking and annual race
With her excellent campaign at Wimbledon, Luisa Stefani has already secured fourth place in the world doubles ranking, the best position of her career to date. If they win the title, she and Gabriela Dabrowski will take the lead in the 2026 annual race, becoming the number 1 duo of the season.

Trajectory of success
Luisa Stefani, Olympic medalist in Tokyo in 2021, is recognized as the main Brazilian tennis player specializing in doubles. The 29-year-old athlete, who currently occupies 7th place in the WTA rankings, will make her 27th career final at Wimbledon, looking to add another to the 16 titles already won.
