    Mboko's Dream Run Continues In Montreal, Reaches First WTA 1000 Semis

    Spaniard Jessica Bouzas Maneiro: Victoria Mboko’s fairytale run at the Canadian Open continues as the 18-year-old advanced to her first WTA 1000-level semifinal after beating big-hitting Spaniard Jessica Bouzas Maneiro 6-4, 6-2.

    The Canadian wild card, who was ranked outside the Top 300 at this time last year, is projected to break into the world's Top 50 following her run this week.

    Since 1970, Mboko is only the second local player to reach the semifinals at the Canadian Open, following Bianca Andreescu in 2019. She also becomes the youngest Canadian player in the Open Era to reach the semifinals at the event. Moreover, Mboko is the youngest from any nation to achieve the feat at the WTA 1000 level since Belinda Bencic in 2015.
