The Belarusian tennis star is ranked number one in the WTA rankings and will significantly strengthen her lead after this Grand Slam.

Aryna Sabalenka

The Belarusian star continues to make history in the world of tennis. Reaching the semifinals has brought Sabalenka’s total ranking points to over 12,000. Previously, only Serena Williams had achieved this. Interestingly, Serena’s all-time record stands at 13,615 points. If Aryna wins Wimbledon, she will reach 13,640 points. Becoming the best in tennis history—what better motivation could there be?

It’s worth noting that in the quarterfinals, Sabalenka lost her first set of the tournament, falling behind against 37-year-old Laura Siegemund. Overall, on her way to the quarterfinals, Sabalenka defeated:

• Carson Bernstein (Canada, ranked 194): 6-1, 7-5
• Marie Bouzkova (Czech Republic, 43): 7-6, 6-4
• Emma Raducanu (United Kingdom, 40): 7-6, 6-4
• Elise Mertens (Belgium, 23): 6-4, 7-6
• Laura Siegemund (Germany, 104): 4-6, 6-2, 6-4

As we can see, most of Sabalenka’s matches at this year’s Wimbledon haven’t come easily.

Amanda Anisimova

Labeling Anisimova a complete underdog—even against the world number one—would be an overstatement. This summer, Amanda has already recorded 11 wins on grass, with only two losses. She entered Wimbledon in excellent form and has already eliminated:

• Yulia Putintseva (Kazakhstan, 33): 6-0, 6-0
• Renata Zarazua (Mexico, 71): 6-4, 6-3
• Dalma Galfi (Hungary, 110): 6-3, 5-7, 6-3
• Linda Noskova (Czech Republic, 27): 6-2, 5-7, 6-4
• Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova (Russia, 50): 6-1, 7-6

Stats and Head-to-Head Record

The players have met eight times. Anisimova leads the head-to-head with five wins to Sabalenka’s three.

Anisimova is not an easy opponent for Sabalenka. If the American’s first serve works well, she could create plenty of problems for the favorite. Our prediction is a handicap bet on Anisimova +4.5 games, with odds of 1.66.
