Barbora Krejčíková

Barbora Krejčíková is a Czech professional tennis player who excels in both singles and doubles on the WTA Tour. Born on May 24, 1995, in Březnice, Czech Republic, she first rose to prominence as part of the dominant Czech doubles duo with Kateřina Siniaková, capturing multiple Grand Slam titles together. Krejčíková also broke through in singles, winning the 2022 French Open and reaching the top‑10 in the world rankings. Known for her crafty left‑handed play, intelligent point construction, and strong net skills, she balances a successful doubles career with a resurging singles campaign. In 2024‑2025 she added several WTA 1000 quarterfinals and a title at the 2025 Birmingham Classic to her résumé, reaffirming her status as a versatile contender on all surfaces. Off the court, Krejčíková represents the Czech Republic in the Billie Jean King Cup and is admired for her sportsmanship and dedication to youth tennis programs in her home country.

Entering the 2026 season, Krejčíková has focused on building momentum ahead of the clay‑court swing. After a solid start on hard courts, highlighted by a semifinal run at the 2026 Australian Open warm‑up in Brisbane, she has been in good form on clay, reaching the quarterfinals at the 2026 Stuttgart Open and posting a win‑loss record of 4‑1 in recent matches. The Czech star is slated to open her Italian Open campaign in Rome next week, where she will face a tough first‑round opponent. Her recent performances suggest she is a contender for a deep run at the upcoming French Open, where she previously captured the singles crown.
