Krejcikova: "Paolini is a great fighter, just like me".

Barbora Krejcikova is expecting a great battle against Jasmine Paolini in the Wimbledon final. The Czech is well aware of her opponent's high level of tennis and fighting spirit.

But she also knows that she possesses both these qualities herself, as she proved against Elena Rybakina in the semi-finals. All the ingredients are in place for a magnificent face-off.

Barbora Krejcikova: "I think it's going to be a big fight, definitely a big fight. I know she's a great fighter, as she showed in the semi-finals (victory over Donna Vekic 2-6, 6-4, 7-6). And it's the same for me.

We're both playing great tennis right now and I think it's going to be a great match on Saturday. "
