Wimbledon is set to draw to a close by the end of this week for another year.
Last year’s men’s single winner, Novak Djokovic, remains on course to defend his title.
And the Serb has certainly talked up his chances of winning a joint-record eighth Wimbledon crown.
Djokovic has continued his dominance at the All England Club in his bids to equal Roger Federer’s men’s record of eight titles, extending his winning run at Wimbledon to 31 matches in a row.
While Ons Jabeur avenged her defeat in the final of Wimbledon last year by knocking out defending champion Elena Rybakina 6-7, 6-4, 6-1 in an engaging encounter on Centre Court on Wednesday (July 12).
Throughout the match, the crowd was right behind the Tunisian Jabeur, who became the first African woman to reach a Grand Slam final when she lost to Rybakina in three sets last summer.
Jabeur now faces second seed Aryna Sabalenka today for a chance to reach the final, after Sabalenka beat American Madison Keys 6-2, 6-4 on Court 1.
“I’m very happy with the performance”, Jabeur said. “A lot of emotion out there. Playing someone who serves really well, it’s frustrating to return. I got angry, then got calm and focused. Hopefully, I can manage my emotions like this for the next few matches.
“It’s not easy playing her. I wish I can exchange this match for the final last year!”
Andy Murray has also exited the competition, after losing to Stefanos Tsitsipas.
