Holy prodigy .. Canadian teenager Vicky Mboko burst on the scene last year with an athletic but immature game.

Looks like she's growing my leaps and bounds. Yesterday, she beat Mirra Andreeva {the "other teen" already in the top 10) from down match point.

Today? Took out the hottest player on tour Elena Rybakina 7-5 4-6 6-4 -- again from down a break in the third set. Snaps Elena's 9 match win steak.

2nd WTA 1000 SF

Muchova sent Cinderella packing with her first title in 6 and a half years.
Still great run by the teen. WTA now has two teens in the top 10.
Back to the good old days.
