Elina Svitolina of Ukraine and Ons Jabeur of Tunisia are set for a titanic battle at Center Court as the two seeded players face each other for the fifth time in the third round of the ladies’ singles tournament at the 2024 Wimbledon Open. Svitolina, a two-time Wimbledon Open semifinalist, overcame an upset attempt from Magda Linette of Poland 7-5 6-7(9) 6-3 and Julia Niemeier of Germany 6-3 6-4 to reach the round-of-32 of this prestigious grass-court tournament. The Ukrainian looks to have another deep run at Wimbledon after falling short last year in the final-four stage. Speaking of coming up short, Jabeur has been in two consecutive finals appearances at Wimbledon and three Grand Slam finals, and yet she is still searching for her first majors title. Jabeur hopes this will be the breakthrough year for her as she takes another shot at the Wimbledon crown. The Tunisian reached the third round after posting two straight wins over Moyuka Uchijima of Japan 6-3 6-1 and Robin Montgomery of the United States 6-1 7-5.
