Unseeded Czech Barbora Krejcikova sealed her rapid rise in the singles game by claiming a first Grand Slam title in an emotional French Open win.
Krejcikova beat Russia's Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova 6-1 2-6 6-4 in only her fifth major singles draw appearance.
The former doubles world number one paid tribute to mentor Jana Novotna, who died in 2017 at the age of 49, saying she owed her success to her.
Krejcikova has often spoken about the impact of former Wimbledon champion Novotna, who died from ovarian cancer.
When she was 18 and an aspiring player, Krejcikova's parents took her to Novotna's house and asked the former world number two for some advice.
Novotna saw something special and became her coach, mentor and friend until she died.
