No, not really. It's thing that some people (Krejcikova) are trying to make happen.

Jabeur, I think, has tentatively earned consideration of it, by beating Wimbledon Champion Rybakina ( like Ukraine entering NATO?!) , I would call it confirmed if she wins the title..

Vondoursova is having a magical day. Looking like a typical Svitolina Semi scoreline.

A pathetic, nervy performance by both! Only Svitolina would have lost to Vondrousova today!

Weird, I didn't watch it closely but I thought everything was working for Vondrousova today. No?

Vondrousova was terrific for a set and a half, with a couple of shots that are candidates for top 10 of the tournament.

She got very tight at the end, befitting her up-and-down form of her entire career, but that's also normal for a player trying to reach a Wimbledon final after never getting past the second round in any other year.
