Tunisians thronged cafes hoping to watch local heroine Ons Jabeur win the women's singles title at Wimbledon on Saturday but Czech Marketa Vondrousova had other ideas. Sixth seed Jabeur ended up as runner-up, just like last year, after putting on an error-strewn performance against the unseeded Vondrousova who won 6-4 6-4. Jabeur's fans were disappointed but said the player dubbed the Minister of Happiness remained a huge inspiration in her homeland.

Carlos Alcaraz said he wanted another shot at Novak Djokovic. Said it would make winning a Wimbledon championship more special. Well, Alcaraz got his chance to face Djokovic. And he beat him. Alcaraz put aside a poor start and surged down the stretch to end Djokovic's 34-match winning streak at the All England Club by edging him 1-6, 7-6 (6), 6-1, 3-6, 6-4 in an engaging, back-and-forth final on Sunday, claiming his first championship at Wimbledon second Grand Slam trophy overall.

Novak Djokovic closed in on a record-tying eighth title at Wimbledon and fifth in a row by repeatedly serving his way out of potential trouble to beat Jannik Sinner 6-3, 6-4, 7-6 (4) in the semifinals on Friday. Djokovic saved all six break points he faced — including a pair that were set points for Sinner at 5-4 in the third — and reached his ninth final at the All England Club. It’s also his 35th final at all Grand Slam tournaments, more than any man or woman in tennis history.

Ons Jabeur hopes Saturday's Wimbledon final will be a game-changer: at the third time of asking she is bidding to become the first African or Arab woman to win a Grand Slam singles title.Three years ago, the Australian Open quarter finalist said she felt as if she was now at the level that could enable her to reach Grand Slam semi-final -- "or even win it".
