The Wimbledon women's semifinals feature four compelling players, with three favorites and one remarkable underdog story. World No. 1 Iga Swiatek's early exit and Serena Williams' first-round loss have opened up the draw significantly.

Women's Outright Betting Odds:

• Simona Halep (+100)
• Ons Jabeur (+120)
• Elena Rybakina (+600)
• Tatjana Maria (+3300)

Ons Jabeur (-800) vs. Tatjana Maria (+500)

Close friends Jabeur and Maria meet in an intriguing semifinal. World No. 2 Jabeur remains the heavy favorite against Maria, ranked 103rd and making an incredible run after returning from having her second child less than a year ago. While Jabeur leads their head-to-head 2-1, they haven't played since 2018 or ever met on grass. Jabeur has spent nearly three hours less on court and should end Maria's Cinderella run.

Elena Rybakina (+220) vs. Simona Halep (-275)

Former champion Halep has been dominant, not dropping a set or facing a tiebreak en route to the semifinals. The 23-year-old Rybakina, representing Kazakhstan, showed resilience in her quarterfinal comeback win. Halep leads their head-to-head 2-1 and is playing some of her best tennis. Her form and experience make her the justified favorite to advance to another Wimbledon final.
