In the aftermath of her 6-7(5), 6-4, 6-1 loss to Ons Jabeur in the quarterfinals on Wednesday, Rybakina was asked who is most likely to win the title?

The world No. 3 says the winner of today’s semifinal between second-ranked Aryna Sabalenka and Jabeur is her choice to take the title.

“It’s tough to say. But I think, I mean, Ons, she was playing really well—not only today, but other matches,” Rybakina said. “I think it’s going to be really tough tomorrow against Aryna.

“I would say some of them [will win Wimbledon].”
