Predicted Women's Tennis Players Steal Attention To Wimbledon 2023

JAKARTA - The women's sector at Wimbledon 2023 will attract attention centers. Many are looking forward to who the champions are considering that in the last six editions the winners are always different.

There have been six different female players who won Wimbledon in the last six editions of the tournament. So it's hard to map out who's the favorite.

World number one Iga Swiatek has conquered clay and hardminton, but the Polish has never had success on grass and has never reached the quarter-finals at the All England Club.

Elena Rybakina with her hard service will try to defend her title, but a number of tennis players will emerge as serious challengers at Wimbledon later.

The following is a row of female players who can be seeded in the 2023 Wimbledon tournament:

1. Aryna Sabalenka (Belarus)

The world number two from Belarus has tidied up his game this year and launched his service more regularly, which helped him win the Australian Open in January.

Sabalenka has also cut a sizeable distance from world number one Swiatek through a number of clay tournaments, beating him in Madrid's final, despite being knocked out in the semifinals of the French Open due to Karolina Muchova.

The 25-year-old was absent at Wimbledon last year due to sanctions against Russian and Belarusian players following the Moscow invasion of Ukraine, and he became the center of attention at Roland Garros when his attitude towards war was questioned.

Sabalenka has kept his distance from Belarusian president Alexander Lukashenko and will compete under the neutral flag at Wimbledon.

2. Ons Jabeur (Tunisia)

After Jabeur lost in the French Open quarter-finals, only one thing in the minds of the world number six is the grass court season.

Jabeur said he was a bit stiff playing at Roland Garros following a number of injuries this year but was determined to perform better on the grass.

Jabeur took the title last year when he won the first set before losing to Rybakina in the final, but the 28-year-old will seek to gain the chance to become the first African and Arab women's player to win the Grand Slam singles title.

Following his defeat at Roland Garros, Jabeur said the grass court fits better with his unusual playing style and he can't wait for a warm-up tournament in Berlin and Eastbourne.

"I hope to win the title at Wimbledon, I dream of it. That's the thing I've always wanted," Jabeur said.

3. Coco Gauff (United States)

Gauff may be only 19 years old, but the world number seven has been poor across the corner of his racket since he was young until he made his debut in the top-tier draw at Wimbledon in 2019.

The United States player made a surprise when he beat five-time champion Venus Williams in two straight sets into the fourth round of the tournament and has since entered the world's top ten.

Having one of the fastest servings among rivals, Gauff will use a powerful weapon on the grass court to aim for Wimbledon's title after he lost to Swiatek at Roland Garros.

"Take him to the next Grand Slam, I'm very excited. I love grass fields. I have good results there," said Gauff.

"I think I can develop a lot and I just hope to be better and improve," he added.
