Katerina Siniakova will compete in her third Wimbledon women’s doubles final after stopping Hsieh Su-Wei’s winning streak at the tournament.
Siniakova and Taylor Townsend defeated top-seeded duo Hsieh and Elise Mertens 3-6, 6-4, 6-4 on No. 1 Court on Friday.
In Saturday’s final, they will face Erin Routliffe and Gabriela Dabrowski, the second-seeded pair from New Zealand and Canada, who defeated Americans Caroline Dolehide and Desirae Krawczyk 6-4, 6-3.
Hsieh has won four Wimbledon doubles titles, including the last three times she competed in the tournament. She won in 2021 with Mertens and in the previous year, Mertens was her opponent in the final. The 2020 tournament was canceled due to the pandemic, and Hsieh missed 2022 due to injury.
