The big favorite to win the women’s Wimbledon was eliminated in the quarter-finals. The reason for this was the defeat of Iga Sviontek against Elina Svitolina, who put on a dream performance, won 2:1 sets (7:5, 6:7, 6:2) and qualified for the semifinals.
Before that, Marketa Vodrusova was the first to secure her place in the top four after beating Jessica Pegula also in 2-1 sets (6-4, 2-6, 6-4).
Svitolina and Vodrusova, who made it to the first women’s quarterfinal, will meet in the semifinals.
