A Dawg won the Wimbledon championship!

[Top Row Dawg]

Looking at Georgia Dogs this morning and read this. Totally missed this last weekend and did not hear about the Australian Open championship earlier this year. Mentioned in my Good Morning post but damn this deserves a stand alone post. A Dawg won the finals at Centre Court Wimbledon.

Jan Zielinski and his mixed doubles partner, Hsieh Su-Wei, won the  Wimbledon championship. Zielinski, who was a three-time All-SEC player during his career and an All-American in 2017.  He and partner Robert Loeb reached the finals of the NCAA doubles tournament in 2019. It was the second mixed doubles Grand Slam title of the year for the duo. Zielinski and Hsieh first teamed up in January at the Australian Open, which they won. They also reached the semifinals of the French Open. Former Georgia men's players Travis Parrott and Murphy Jensen won Grand Slam doubles titles in their pro careers, but Zielinski is the Bulldogs' first two-time champion.

Damn, his lady partner, Hsieh, has won the women's doubles title at Wimbledon four times. The Taiwanese player now has nine Grand Slam titles to her name, seven in women's doubles and two in mixed with Zielinski.
