Jasmine Paolini reached her second consecutive Grand Slam final with a 2-6, 6-4, 7-6 (10-8) victory over unseeded Donna Vekic at Wimbledon on Thursday in a rollicking match that lasted 2 hours, 51 minutes. With the scintillating victory, she created history as the 28-year-old became the first Italian Woman to enter the final of Wimbledon. Paolini made repeated comebacks after dropping the opening set, after being two games from defeat at 4-all in the second, after twice trailing by a break in the third at 3-1 and 4-3 at Centre Court and finally edged past Vekic to enter the summit clash.
