In a decisive performance on Thursday, Elena Rybakina defeated former Wimbledon champion Simona Halep 6-3, 6-3 to advance to her first Grand Slam championship match. Halep was in the sights of Rybakina, who pounded her Romanian opponent with piercing serves and vicious forehands.Halep struggled with her serve in the opening game and was broken twice. The Romanian, who had not lost a set in the previous five rounds of the competition, displayed flashes of inspiration, but unforced errors kept holding her back.Meanwhile, Rybakina played consistently throughout almost the entire game. Apart from breaking once in the second set, she dominated from the baseline and controlled play with her strong groundstrokes and serve.Wimbledon@WimbledonRybakina roars onto the biggest stageThe 23-year-old defeats Simona Halep 6-3, 6-3 to reach her first Grand Slam final#Wimbledon | #CentreCourt100803206Rybakina roars onto the biggest stageThe 23-year-old defeats Simona Halep 6-3, 6-3 to reach her first Grand Slam final#Wimbledon | #CentreCourt100 https://t.co/u0jfhZlDEAElena Rybakina, a Moscow-born athlete, changed her nationality to Kazakhstan in 2018 to access more generous aid.
