18-time Grand Slam champion, Chris Evert has been doing commentary during the whole Wimbledon Championships 2022. Incidentally, she covered the ladies’ final match between Elena Rybakina and Ons Jabeur.

After the Kazakh player won the Wimbledon Championships, she was doing her routine and formalities. At the same time, Evert was also doing commentary talking about her Russian roots.
