2022 Wimbledon Final: Elena Rybakina vs. Ons Jabeur

[MiamiWeekendWarrior]

Hilarous... Wimbledon bans Russian players but one manages to sneak in and is very close to winning the whole thing. It's not over quite yet but it's looking very possible.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Jabeur has been trash. Rybakina to serve for the match.

 

[ibbi]

 

[abmk]

Rybakina with loopy inside out fh and then good enough inside in fh to force the error.
breaks.
5-2.
will serve for the championship!

 

[ACE of Hearts]

She has been the better player by far. More aggressive and better serve.

 

[tudwell]

Wow~, could this be a classic?

I don’t know about a classic, but it’s finishing strong. The third set has been the most tense and dramatic of the sets – and maybe the highest quality?

 

[Sarzy]

Well that's gotta be it

 

[Vamos Rafa Nadal]

YES!!! Serving for the match! With an insurance break too!

 

[Russeljones]

Jabeur is too passive on BPs, like Federer.

She has little in way of forcing an outcome. Daft comparison.

 

[Fed881981]

1. You can’t convert BPs.
2. You can’t deny BPs.

You deserve to lose. Pathetic display by Jabeur since winning the first set. Pathetic!

 

[zvelf]

It'll be interesting to see whether Rybakina reacts to winning Wimbledon with more than a tiny fist pump.

 

[Nostradamus]

Would Borat marry Rybakina ?

It's what they deserve. Can't wait for her to take the title back to her home in, um... Moscow. What a well thought out plan.

 

[bezs]

Nicely done by Elena.

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Rybakina is unplayable from the baseline

 

[bluetrain4]

Ons is offs.

 

[Tennis Fan States63]

Rybakina breaks for 5-2 and will serve for the championship....oh my. She's been the more solid player for the better part of the last two sets. Ons Jabeur letting this get away.....can she make a huge rally? We shall see.

 

[Vamos Rafa Nadal]

3 more points!

 

[elkwood]

This will be a tough ask for anyone to come back from.

 

[TennisTurkey]

This is like Isner vs Mansour Bahrami

 

[Vamos Rafa Nadal]

Hold your serve and hold your nerve - and win!

 

[llgtennislegend]

Sad for ons.

 

[-NN-]

Well when Rybakina found her game, bizarre sitter errors and awful touch included, she had too much power and accuracy for Jabeur to deal with today, hmm?

 

[ACE of Hearts]

1. You can’t convert BPs.
2. You can’t deny BPs.

You deserve to lose. Pathetic display by Jabeur since winning the first set. Pathetic!

Her serve has been junk in this 3rd set. Rybakina making less UEs compared to the first set.

 

[Russeljones]

That 2nd serve was out, surely..

 

[Tennfan123]

Good for Rybs she had the double break!

 

[bullfan]

Jabeur blew this big time

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Rybakina can still choke this.

 

[abmk]

Jabeur taking the initiative on that point.
15-30 Rybakina.

 

[MiamiWeekendWarrior]

She's getting tight.

 

[Deleted member 791948]

LOL Jab missed the doubles court on that one

 

[abmk]

Jabeur going for too much on the CC bh there and misses.
30 all.

 

[Carax]

Would Borat marry Rybakina ?

Would Rybakina marry Borat?

 

[ibbi]

This is like Isner vs Mansour Bahrami

Isner wishes he could make as few errors as she does relative to her style of play.

 

[Vamos Rafa Nadal]

2 more points - come on Elena!

 

[Tennfan123]

MP on Ons error!

 

[MiamiWeekendWarrior]

That 2nd serve was out, surely..

Yep, that looked like two DFs in a row but they didn't call the second one out. The line judges have been pathetic.

 

[elkwood]

match point...

 

[gadge]

That’s right, make ridiculous mistakes when your opponent is nervous

 

[Deleted member 791948]

Championship point!

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Jabeur blew this big time

How? She’s basically waiting on rybakina to make a mistake. Lol. Rybakina more aggressive and getting more first serves in

 

[ktx]

Rybakina calmly executing her game plan. Her demeanor is impressive. I was hoping for ons to win but looks like Elena will take it.

 

[Vamos Rafa Nadal]

Championship point! Come on Elena!

 

[Tennis Fan States63]

Championship point....wow.

 

[MiamiWeekendWarrior]

Jabeur is playing horribly.

 

[Krish872007]

Championship Point Rybakina...

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

Rybakina wins Wimbledon and spoils the Jabeur party and Eid Mubarak

 

[Russeljones]

This is going to be agony for Ons Jabeur. She had so many opportunities.

 

[elkwood]

Grats Rybakina

 

[Johnny505]

Elegance prevails
