Rybakina vs Jabeur Predictions
A week before her first-round match at Wimbledon, Jabeur won the Berlin Open grass-court tournament, where she only lost one set. With this win, she won the second grass-court championship of her career. In London, she continued to show how good she was on the court, as shown by the fact that she is now unbeaten in 22 of her last 24 matches and has won 11 straight matches.
Since the start of 2021, Jabeur has won 84 matches, which is more than any other woman on tour and three more than Iga Swiatek, who is ranked first in the world. Swiatek was the favorite to win Wimbledon, but he lost in the third round. Jabeur has more wins than Swiatek by three.
After her match against Rybakina on Saturday, Jabeur will play her fifth and last match of the year. She has been in four finals, and she has won two of them. The Berlin Open and the Madrid Open were both played on clay.
Rybakina, on the other hand, has only been in one final this season before the Wimbledon tournament. Ashleigh Barty, who was ranked No. 1 at the time, beat her in the final round of the Adelaide International, which was played outside on a hard court, in January. On the other hand, Rybakina has done very well at Wimbledon. In her two main draw matches at Wimbledon, she has gone 8-1 at The Championships.
Still, the 23-year-old athlete has never won a match against a player ranked No. 1 or No. 2, and she has lost to a Top-10 player in each of her last four finals, all of which were in 2020 or later.
The up-and-coming tennis player is 1–2 against Jabeur, and all of their matches have taken place on hardcourt. The last time they played against each other was in the 2021 WTA Chicago Fall Tennis semifinal.
Rybakina showed her toughness against Halep in the Wimbledon semifinal, and Jabeur will have a hard time beating her on Saturday. However, the Tunisian will win her first Grand Slam title and become the sixth different woman to win Wimbledon in the last six years. This will be the sixth time in the last six years that a different woman has won Wimbledon.
Prediction: Ons Jabeur will be the winner of the match in three sets.
