July 14, 2023 12:53 am

The stage is set for an exhilarating showdown at the hallowed lawns of Wimbledon as Vondrousova and Jabeur prepare to clash in the highly anticipated final.

The unseeded Czech left-hander, Vondrousova has showcased her exceptional skills and resilience throughout the tournament. Improving on her quarter-final finish in Berlin, she has reached her second Grand Slam final since the 2019 Roland Garros.

On the other side of the net, we have the sixth seed Jabeur. The Tunisian star has showcased her tremendous fighting spirit and never-say-die attitude, avenging her 2022 Championship final defeat to Elena Rybakina and then finishing world number 2, Aryna Sabalenka’s ambition of a second Grand Slam of 2023.

Marketa Vondrousova vs Ons Jabeur: Overall Head-to-Head Record

The rivalry between Vondrousova and Jabeur goes back to 2015 when they first met in Prague. Jabeur had to withdraw, trailing the Czech ace 3-0 in the second set after giving up the first one. That meeting was in the second round qualifier for the main draw and their encounter in the Championships final showcases the advances they have made in their career.

Their current H2H record stands at 3-2 in favour of Vondrousova. Jabeur defeated the Czech star at the 2021 Eastbourne International and the 2022 Stuttgart Open. However, the most recent meetings have gone in favour of Vonrousova, at this year’s Australian Open and Indian Wells. It promises to be an exciting affair and if we have learnt one thing from Jabeur’s trials at the All England Club, counting her out will be folly.
