Barbora Krejcikova and Katerina Siniakova win their seventh major title at the Australian Open 2023

Czech title collectors Barbora Krejcikova/Katerina Siniakova have struck again at the Australian Open. The successful duo secured their seventh Grand Slam triumph together with a 6: 4, 6: 3 win against the Japanese Shuko Aoyama/Ena Shibahara. Before Krejikova and Siniakova, only four other teams had done that since the introduction of professional tennis in 1968.

Last year, the Czechs triumphed in Melbourne, Wimbledon and New York. They were unable to start in Paris because Krejcikova tested positive for the corona virus.
