On the women's singles final...

It is going to be very fun to watch.

They have met each other once, but that was in qualifying at the 2018 Australia Open.

At the moment because of the way Paolini played today I don't think she was anywhere close to her best tennis.

Barbora Krejcikova has more options and has a lot of skills which is layered to her game, but everyday I have got the predictions wrong!

Britain's Alfie Hewett continued his quest for an elusive Wimbledon men's wheelchair singles title, despite being hampered by a shoulder injury as he reached the semi-finals.

Second seed Hewett outplayed Frenchman Stephane Houdet to win 6-1 6-4 on a sweltering court three.

But he did need a medical timeout at 4-1 in the first set to treat his already heavily strapped shoulder, and had repeated problems with his first serve.

Hewett has won eight Grand Slam singles titles and has won every major across singles and doubles - except the Wimbledon singles title.

A semi-final that will always be talked about as Jasmine Paolini does what looked impossible and moves into her first Wimbledon final.

At two hours and 51 minutes it became the longest women's singles semi-final at Wimbledon and was undoubtedly one of the best matches of this tournament.

Vekic looked in control after the first set, held a break of serve advantage at 4-3 in the final set and was then two points away from victory in the tie-break, but the Italian fought back to become the first player from her country to make the women's singles final at Wimbledon.

The Centre Crowd loved every second of it, with a large majority cheering on Paolini. Two match points had not been taken earlier on, then behind in the tie-break before the Italian somehow held her nerve to clinch an incredible victory in an absolute thriller.

It was an absolute privilege to be able to be on Centre Court for it and it's a match I and everyone else here will remember for a very long time indeed.

On Donna Vekic...

Sport is sport.

When you take a loss like that, there is nothing that can compare to the enormity of what she was doing today. I thought she was the better player throughout the match - Paolini wasn't playing her best tennis.

For Vekic it will be more painful when you know you could have done something differently to get to the final.

After a record breaking semi-final Jasmine Paolini told Rishi Persad that she would "remember this game forever."

Paolini and Vekic's match was two hours and 51 minutes - the longest women's semi-final in Wimbledon history.

Henry Patten has reached his first Wimbledon men's doubles final by knocking out fellow Briton and 2023 champion Neal Skupski.

Patten, alongside Finnish partner Harri Heliovaara, beat ninth seeds Skupski and Michael Venus of New Zealand 6-4 7-6 (7-1) on Court One.

They will face Max Purcell and Jordan Thompson in Saturday's final after the Australian duo defeated Marcel Granollers and Horacio Zeballos of Spain and Argentina respectively in straight sets.

“It feels pretty good. I am not sure it has quite set in. I don't think it had hit us - neither of us realised what had happened," said Patten.

“I’m trying to not think about Grand Slam champions. But it’s every Brit’s dream, every tennis player’s dream.”

Jasmine Paolini fought and dug deep. She found a way of scraping her way over the line.

There was a lot of cat and mouse - what I like to call 'Tom and Jerry' tennis, a lot of to-ing and fro-ing.

Players hate to be brought off the baseline and when players start to move them forward it's hard on the legs - you have to be very dynamic.

They did have some unbelievable rallies.

Italy's Jasmine Paolini, who had never won a match at Wimbledon before this year, booked her spot in the final courtesy of a 2-6 6-4 7-6 (10-8) over Croatia's Donna Vekic earlier today.

In one of the best matches of the tournament, Paolini missed two match points and was 8-7 behind in the 10-point tie-break before recovering to clinch an incredible victory.

The match lasted two hours 51 minutes, making it the longest women's singles semi-final at Wimbledon

Paolini, who lost in the French Open final last month, said: "This match I will remember forever.

“I think these last months have been crazy for me. I don’t know, I am just trying to focus on what I have to do on court and enjoying what I am doing.

“I love playing tennis. It is a dream. I was watching finals when I was a kid at Wimbledon. I am just enjoying it and trying to live in the present.”

Krejcikova is a real interesting mix and she brings a box of tricks out on to the court - she is also very strong mentally.

By the end of the match Rybakina had lost all of her energy and she was getting more frustrated - she ran out of steam today.

Saturday's final will be just the second time Barbora Krejcikova and Jasmine Paolini have met and it's a world away from their first encounter.

The pair squared off in the first round of qualifying for the Australian Open in 20218 with Krejcikova claiming a straight set victory.

It is set to be the first women's singles final at a Grand Slam in the Open Era when two opponents have previously met in a Grand Slam qualifier.

Finally from Barbora Krejcikova, addressing the crowd on her finals opponent Jasmine Paolini:

"A big fight.

"I know that she is a huge fighter and she showed today, but it will be the same from me. We are playing great tennis and it will be a great match on Saturday."

We couldn't have asked for more today.

You really didn't know who as going to come out on top and that is what you want in live sport.

A real showcase for women's tennis.

Wimbledon finalist Barbora Krejcikova addressing the crowd at the All England Club:

"Unbelievable.

"It is very tough to explain, but a lot of joy and a lot of emotions. Also there is a lot of relief and I am super proud!

"I am so proud about my game and my fighting spirit today.

"I was trying to fight for every single ball, during the second set I was getting my momentum and when I broke her I started to be in the zone and I didn't want to leave the zone."

On believing she would make a singles Wimbledon final:

"No. Never.

"A couple of years I was working with Jana Novotna the 1998 Wimbledon winner.

"She was telling me a lot of stories about her journey here and how she was trying to win Wimbledon. I was so far away when we had this talk. Now I am here and I am in a final!

"I remember thinking about her a lot. I have so many beautiful memories and when I step on the court I fight for every single ball as that is what she would want me to do."

A huge smile on Barbora Krejcikova's face, looking up to her team almost as if she can't believe it.

She was down and out in this match, 4-0 down in the first set, went on to lose it 6-3 but she never lost hope.

The roaring "come on" that she gave, she didn't let her energy levels drop. She dragged her best tennis out of herself.

Elena Rybakina leaves the court to the appreciation of the crowd but she is going to be so disappointed, she was favourite for the tournament I think.

Jasmine Paolini and Barbora Krejcikova, what a grass court final that is going to be.

Barbora Krejcikova is no stranger to a final at Wimbledon, having twice lifted the women's doubles title, but she has just broken new ground in the singles.

It has been a tournament full of upsets in the women's singles draw so this result shouldn't come as too much of a surprise, right?

Krejcikova will face Italian seventh seed Jasmine Paolini in Saturday's final.

The Czech is being interviewed on court now.

Rybakina has got to hope that she gets some luck on the second serves.

Krejcikova serve has been so impressive down the stretch. Can Krejcikova hold it together as she serves for the match?
