Wimbledon 2024 Women's Singles Final Highlights: A nerve-wracking, end-to-end Wimbledon Women's Singles final was decided in the final set, as Barbara Krejcikova won her second Grand Slam title, and her very first Wimbledon, beating Jasmine Paolini in the final, at Centre Court. She won 6-2, 2-6, 6-4. Paolini mounted an incredible comeback in the second set after Krejcikova raced to victory in the first set. Krejcikova, now a two-time Grand Slam winner (after French Open 2021), shocked 11th seed Danielle Collins in the fourth round and former French Open champion Jelena Ostapenko in the quarter-finals, before punching even higher in a three-set win over 2022 champion Elena Rybakina in the last four. Paolini, on the other hand, faced the agony of losing back-to-back Grand Slam finals on the trot.
