Rybakina has the leg-up on the trio of Tier 1 favorites as a previous winner. She lifted the trophy two years ago, defeating World No. 10 Ons Jabeur in the final. She’s returning to the final eight at Wimbledon for a third consecutive year. Anna Kalinskaya retired due to injury, putting Rybakina in the quarterfinals.

Awaiting her, there will be 2023 semifinalist Elina Svitolina, the winner of the fourth-round clash between China’s Wang Xinyu, who knocked out No. 5 seed Jessica Pegula earlier in the tournament.

A New Era In US Women’s Tennis

Serena Williams retired from tennis in 2022, ushering in a new era in women’s tennis. The seven-time champion is responsible for the last five US victories at Wimbledon. Her sister, Venus, is undecided on her professional tennis future and will not participate at Wimbledon this year. The sisters are responsible for the last 12 US victories and 20-of-22 US finals appearances since 2000.

Helen Wills Moody (USA, 1927-38) has the second-most all-time titles with eight. Dorothea Lambert Chambers (U.K., 1903-1914) notched seven of them. Those came in the Amateur Era, pre-1968.
