Barbora Krejcikova and Jasmine Paolini faced off in the highly anticipated women's final at Wimbledon 2024. Both players had impressive runs in the tournament, with Krejcikova winning her second Grand Slam singles title and Paolini making her second consecutive grand slam final appearance.
Krejcikova, who had a difficult season due to injuries and a subsequent drop in world rankings, started strong by taking the first set 6-2. However, Paolini fought back in the second set and won it 6-2.
The third set was a tense battle between the two players. Krejcikova held her nerve and managed to secure crucial points to build momentum and send messages during rallies, ultimately winning the set 6-4 and the match.
With this victory, Krejcikova became the first Czech woman to win Wimbledon since Jana Novotna in 1998. Paolini, on the other hand, showed great determination and sportsmanship throughout the tournament and became a fan favorite.
Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic will face each other in the men's singles final later that day. Both players have had impressive runs in the tournament, with Alcaraz defeating Daniil Medvedev in the semi-finals and Djokovic beating Lorenzo Musetti.
Djokovic, who has won a total of 24 Grand Slams, aims to become the player with the most Major titles won in tennis history with a victory on Sunday. Alcaraz, currently third in the ATP tennis rankings, is looking to add another major title to his resume.
The women's final was played at Centre Court of the All England Club and was telecast live on various channels and live streaming platforms around the world.
