Ounce Jaber (6th, Tunisia) and Marketa Bondrowsova (42nd, Czech Republic) clash in the women’s singles final at the Wimbledon tennis tournament (total prize money 44.7 million pounds, about 74.3 billion won).
On the 13th (local time) at the All England Club in London, England, on the 11th day of the women’s singles semifinal match, Javert lost 2-1 (6-7, , 6) to Arina Savalenka (3rd place, Belarus) after 2 hours and 19 minutes. -4, 6-3) and succeeded in advancing to the finals for the second year in a row.
Javert will clash on the 15th for the championship title with Bondroushoba, who calmed Elina Svitolina (76, Ukraine)’s “mom storm” 2-0 (6-3, 6-3) in the previous game.
No matter who wins, it is the final where ‘new history’ will be written.
At Wimbledon last year, Jaber became the first Arab player to reach the singles final at a major tournament, both men and women, and finished runner-up.
After finishing runner-up at the subsequent US Open, Javert will try to win the first major championship by an Arab player at Wimbledon.
If he wins just one more game, he will take the first step in Arab tennis history beyond Tunisia.
Bondroshova also writes a new history.
Bondrousova, ranked 42nd in the world, will become the lowest ranked player to win Wimbledon since the WTA ranking system was introduced.
Bondrowshova reached the Wimbledon final with the second-lowest ranking in history. The lowest ranked finalist was Serena Williams (retired, USA) from the 2018 competition. At the time, Williams’ ranking was 181, and she ended up finishing runner-up.
At Wimbledon, the top 32 players in the singles are seeded, and if Bondrowshova wins, it will make the first case of an unseeded player reaching the top of Wimbledon since 1968, when professional players were allowed to compete in major tournaments. It is also the first case of reaching the final.
In addition, Bondlow Shoba will write a record of reaching the top of Wimbledon by barely meeting a 50% win rate in his grass court career record.
Bondroushoba, who was particularly weak on the grass court until last season, has shown a drastic change by winning 8 wins on the grass so far this year.
The record of the two players against each other is tight with 3 wins and 3 losses.
However, Bond Lowshova is on a two-game winning streak against Javert. She won 2-1 in the second round of the Australian Open, her first major tournament of the year, and 2-0 in the third round of the round of 32 at the WTA 1000 Indian Wells.
On this day, Javert gave the first set to Savalenka, who was playing ‘power tennis’, and was dragged away.
However, with her unique persistent defense and various shots, she shook Sabalenka and took the flow from the middle of the second set.
In sub ace and winner, Sabalenka was ahead 10:3, 39:28, but Javert showed a huge advantage in unforced error, 14:45.
