Tunisian Ons Jabeur avenged her defeat in last year's final by coming back from a set down to overcome third-seeded defending champion Kazakhstan’s Elena Rybakina 6-7, 6-4, 6-1, advancing to the Wimbledon semi-finals on Wednesday. A year ago, Jabeur was close to becoming the first Arab woman to win the Wimbledon title before losing in three sets, but the dream continues in 2023 as the sixth seed made a strong comeback despite looking stunned after losing the first-set tiebreak.
Jabeur rallied and regained her strength, delivering powerful shots and gradually dominating the match, winning five consecutive games to claim the second set, which gave her an edge in the third set, where she completely dominated. She will face second-seeded Aryna Sabalenka in the semi-finals after the Belarusian player defeated American Madison Keys in straight sets earlier today.
