Italian Eyes Another Deep Run
Jasmine Paolini moved into the third round at Wimbledon after defeating Viktorija Golubic in straight sets, 7-6, 6-4. She trailed by a break three times in the opening set but responded on each occasion before taking the tiebreak, which proved to be the turning point in the match.
This is the first time Paolini has won multiple main-draw matches at a tournament since March, highlighting her struggles to build momentum in recent months.
The Italian had registered multiple main-draw wins only three times before Wimbledon this season, reaching the semifinals in Merida, the third round at the Australian Open, and the fourth round at Indian Wells. However, she struggled throughout the clay swing and dropped significant ranking points, slipping outside the top 10.
Paolini has played only one third-round match at Wimbledon, converting it into a runner-up finish in 2024. Overall, she owns a 5-3 career record in third-round matches at Grand Slams.

Greek Continues Fighting Spirit
Maria Sakkari survived a gruelling three-set battle against Kamilla Rakhimova, 6-3, 0-6, 7-6, to reach the third round at Wimbledon. She trailed by a break twice in the deciding set before raising her level in the crucial moments to complete the comeback.
This is the fifth time Sakkari has reached the third round at Wimbledon, but she has never progressed beyond this stage, losing all four of her previous matches.
The Greek reached the semifinals in Doha earlier this season but failed to build on that result, suffering a series of early-round exits. Her only other notable result came at Roland Garros, where she reached the third round.
Sakkari heads into this clash with a 5-13 career record in third-round matches at Grand Slams. She has not won a match at this stage since the 2022 Australian Open and is currently on a five-match losing streak in Grand Slam third rounds.
