The final eight of Wimbledon 2023 will begin from Tuesday (11 July), with top contenders still in the hunt. Reigning women's winner Elena Rybakina has a re-match of last year's final against Ons Jabeur.

Iga Swiatek, Djokovic's fellow champion in Paris last month, advanced to her first-ever Wimbledon quarter-final by saving two match points in her fourth-round encounter with Belinda Bencic, the Olympic gold medallist, booking a date with the inspiring story of the event in Elina Svitolina, the Ukrainian who gave birth to her first child last October.

The 2022 women's final is set for a re-match, too, with champion Elena Rybakina in fierce form, much like runner-up Ons Jabeur, who took out two-time winner Petra Kvitova on Monday by losing just three games.

The ladies bracket looks to be wide open as the tournament gets ready to start. In addition to her struggles on grass, Świątek will be coming into this event after withdrawing from the Bad Homburg Open semifinals on Friday due to an illness.

Sabalenka is returning to Wimbledon after being unable to compete last year due to the tournament's ban on Belarusian players in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. She had her best showing at the All England Club in 2021 with a run to the semifinals.

The 25-year-old has been fantastic in the first two Grand Slam events of the year. She defeated Rybakina in the finals of the Australian Open for her first Grand Slam singles title. That was followed up with a run to the French Open semis before a three-set loss to Karolína Muchová.
