    Wimbledon 2023: Marketa Vondrousova reaches her second Grand Slam semi-final

    What's the story

    Czech Republic's Marketa Vondrousova beat fourth seed Jessica Pegula to reach the semi-final of 2023 Wimbledon on July 11.

    The former bounced back from a second-set defeat and won 6-4, 2-6, 6-4 in a rain-curtailed fixture at Court 1.

    Vondrousova, who earlier qualified for her maiden Wimbledon quarter-final, has reached the penultimate match at Grand Slams for the second time.

    Stats

    A look at the match stats

    Vondrousova won a total of 90 points and 24 winners in the match. She struck more aces (7) than that of Pegula (0).

    The former had a win percentage of 68 and 32 in the first and second serves, respectively. She won 44% of the receiving points.

    Notably, Pegula covered a distance of 3,651.8 meters throughout the match.

    Majors

    Second major semis appearance 

    As mentioned, Vondrousova has reached only her second semi-final at Grand Slams.

    Her only other major semi-final appearance was at the 2019 French Open where she defeated Johanna Konta in straight sets.

    However, the former finished as the runner-up after losing to Ashleigh Barty, the former world number one.

    Therefore, Vondrousova enters the 2023 Wimbledon semi-final with a perfect record.

    Information

    Vondrousova attains this feat  

    As per Opta, Vondrousova has become just the third player in the Open Era to reach the semi-final at Wimbledon after defeating four seeded opponents. Zheng Jie (2008) and Barbora Strycova (2019) are the others with this feat.

    Clash

    Vondrousova will face Elina Svitolina in semis

    Vondrousova will next face Elina Svitolina, who knocked top seed Iga Swiatek out of the 2023 Wimbledon. The latter won in three sets - 7-5, 6-7(5), 6-2 - at the Centre Court.

    Notably, Svitolina has a 3-2 win-loss record against Vondrousova in the WTA head-to-head series.

    However, Vondrousova prevailed in the last two encounters between the two (2020 Olympics and 2020 Rome).
