    What's the story

    17th seed Elena Rybakina has clocked a historic feat in the women's singles of the 2022 Wimbledon.

    She became the first Kazakhstan player to reach the final of the coveted grass-court tourney.

    The 23-year-old had bested the 2019 Wimbledon winner Simona Halep in straight sets (6-3, 6-3) in the semi-finals.

    She will be taking on third-seeded Ons Jabeur in the finale later this evening.

    A look at the head-to-head record

    It would be the fourth meet between Rybakina and Jabeur in the WTA match-ups.

    The latter has a 2-1 lead in their encounters, having won in Dubai and Chicago (retired) in 2021.

    Meanwhile, Rybakina had outfoxed the Tunisian in R32 in Wuhan back in 2019.

    Rybakina has a 27-12 win-loss record in 2022.

    She would be looking to cash in on her form.
