Despite a spirited effort, Jabeur fell to Elena Rybakina in three sets. Nonetheless, former World No.1 Victoria Azarenka was one of several to shower the new World No.2 with praise, as was evident in her Twitter post following the Wimbledon final.
"One of the best things that happened to tennis is @Ons_Jabeur keep shining and sharing your light with the world! Biggest inspiration to so many!!!" wrote the two-time Grand Slam champion.
Azarenka did not compete at this year's Wimbledon event, as Russian and Belarusian nationals were banned from playing due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

- It's always a sad note when anyone SELLS OUT on their hobby or sport. Doing so with these murderous, secretive, Saudi oppressors of women makes it embarrassing. Money cannot instill 'passion' in potential fans; money cannot force players to 'enjoy' their participation simply because hey are being paid millions upon showing up; money cannot gaurantee a future. What money can (and does) do is distract otherwise intensely focused athletes, money can entice people to go against their better judgement for a buck; money can potentially harm any given sport and has done so -- or at least caused concern for its future.
