We're down to two, and although we haven't quite seen the history-making run to the decider of an unseeded player, the 2024 Women's Singles Final still features two players who few would have predicted to topple the best in the world — both of whom have never progressed so far at Wimbledon and at present have just one major title between them.

Coming into the tournament as seventh seed, Italy's Jasmine Paolini has shot up the world rankings in 2024 in her quest for a maiden major. She reached the final of the French Open just last month, and after losing to world No. 1 Iga Swiatek — knocked out in Wimbledon's third round by Yulia Putintseva — Paolini's winning today's match would be some way to respond.
