Taiwanese tennis ace Hsieh Su-wei (謝淑薇) on Sunday won the ninth Grand Slam title of her career when she and Jan Zielinski of Poland defeated Mexican duo Santiago Gonzalez and Giuliana Olmos in the mixed doubles final at Wimbledon in London.

Hsieh and Zielinski won the mixed doubles title after beating Gonzalez and Olmos 6-4, 6-2. The victory gave Hsieh her second Grand Slam mixed doubles title after she and Zielinski won the Australian Open title earlier this year.

“It’s great to be back again in the Centre Court,” Hsieh said after the final. “Of course, thanks to Jan to bring us back to this amazing court again.”

“[Hsieh’s] experience helped us to get back on Centre Court after the second round, get through some tough matches,” Zielinski said. “I couldn’t be more proud of us, and how we fought and how we cooperated together.”

“Thank you so much for playing together,” Zielinski said to Hsieh. “Yeah, it’s a pretty good partnership we’re having so far.”

Hsieh has also won seven Grand Slam women’s doubles titles — four of them at Wimbledon (2013, 2019, 2021 and last year), two at the French Open (2014 and last year) and one at the Australian Open (this year).

The Taiwanese player’s 22-match winning streak in the women’s doubles at Wimbledon was snapped on Friday last week when she and Elise Mertens of Belgium were defeated 3-6, 6-4, 6-4 by Taylor Townsend of the US and Katerina Siniakova of the Czech Republic.

Wimbledon was not played in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and Hsieh sat out the 2022 event.

Seeded seventh in the mixed doubles, Hsieh and Zielinski’s run to the final was not easy.

They had to win a set by a tiebreaker in every one of their four matches leading up the final, and needed a 10-5 win in a super tiebreaker to defeat Townsend and Britain’s Jamie Murray in the quarter-finals.
