Ons Jabeur makes her way to her first-ever Grand Slam final by defeating Tatjana Maria in the semi-finals in 3-sets. The Tunisian had not dropped a set in the first four rounds but had to stage a comeback in both the quarter-final and semi-final match. Fresh from a title in Berlin combined with the consistent and top-notch form that she has been in all season, Ons reaches the Wimbledon final undefeated on grass this season.

Elena Rybakina also reaches her first-ever Grand Slam final as she beat 2019 Wimbledon champion Simona Halep in the semi-finals in straight-sets. Unlike Ons, Elena has dropped a set only once this year at Wimbledon, during her quarter-final win over Ajla Tomljanovic. With only 1 win from 3 matches coming into Wimbledon, not many saw the young Kazakhstani player making such a big run but she has certainly proved everyone wrong.

This will be the 4th meeting between the two players and the first non-hardcourt meeting for them. After Elena won in their first meeting, Ons won the next match, both going in 3-sets. The third match was cut short due to Elena’s mid-match retirement but it was another close encounter between the two players.

Rybakina will come into the tie with a career grasscourt record of 21-7 and is 7-2 on the surface this season while having a season record of 27-12 across all surfaces. Jabeur will take the court with a career grasscourt record of 63-17 and is 11-0 on the surface this season while having a 36-9 season record so far.

Looking at these numbers and considering their form in the 2022 season, Ons looks like the favourite going into the finals for her slightly better experience of playing the big finals and the consistency that she has shown throughout the season. While Rybakina surprised everyone with the manner in which she took out Halep in the semis, she can certainly repeat it against Ons as well with her pinpoint accurate serve. Despite this factor, the Tunisian looks set for the Grand Slam glory.

Prediction: Ons Jabeur to win in 3-sets.
