Japanese star Naomi Osaka produced one of the biggest upsets of Wimbledon 2026, defeating World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka 6-2, 7-6(2) on Centre Court on Sunday to reach the quarter-finals at the All England Club for the first time in her career.

The four-time Grand Slam champion delivered an outstanding display of power and precision to end Sabalenka's dominance in their recent rivalry, having lost to the Belarusian three times already this season, including in the fourth round of the French Open. The victory also marked Osaka's first win over Aryna Sabalenka since the 2018 US Open.
