Ons Jabeur (6th in the world) and Marketa Vondrousova (42nd) had the merit of climbing to the Wimbledon final after eliminating many favorites.
Ons Jabeur delivered great performances and managed during the six matches played to eliminate four players, each with at least one Grand Colem title in his record.
These are the Canadian Bianca Andrescu (US Open 2019), the Czech Petra Kvitova (Wimbledon 2011), the Kazakhe Elena Rybakina (Wimbledon 2022) and the Belarusian Aryna Sabalenka (Open d’Australia 2023).
Marketa Vondrousova has dismissed a priori superior players like Veronika Kudermetova (12th), Donna Vekic (21st), and Jessica Pegula (4th), before putting an end to the epic of the Ukrainian Elina Svitolina, semi-finalist 2019.
