Krejcikova has been struggling with a back injury and illness this season.

Between the end of January's Australian Open and this month's Championships, she had played nine singles matches, winning just three of them.

Barbora said: "I didn't really have a good beginning to the season. It's unbelievable I'm stood here now and I've won Wimbledon. I have no idea [how it happened]."

She'll receive £2.7m in prize money for winning.
