Biggest upsets of 2022: Maria shocks Ostapenko and more

The WTA Editorial team picks the biggest upsets of the 2022 season. Ons Jabeur, the season's leader in clay-court wins, fell to Magda Linette in the opening round of French Open. Alizé Cornet broke Iga Swiatek's 37-match win streak at Wimbledon.

Maria shocked Ostapenko in the 2022 Grand Slam.

Caroline Garcia beat Iga Swiatek 6-1, 1-6, 6 -4 in the Warsaw quarterfinals. It was Garcia's first win over a current World No.1. Garcia went on to win the WTA Finals title and a No 4 ranking.

Tatjana Maria beat Jelena Ostapenko in four sets in the fourth round at Wimbledon. Maria saved two match points en route to the hotly-contested win. She is the oldest first-time Wim Championships quarterfinalist in Open Era.

Maddison Inglis beat Leylah Fernandez in straight sets at the Australian Open. In the end, the result makes sense given the overall seasons that both players had. Alex Macpherson questions the decision to give Ingis a wild card.
