Jasmine Paolini has made history at Wimbledon by becoming the first Italian player in the Open Era to reach the Round of 16 at each of the first three Women's Singles Grand Slam events in a season. Paolini defeated Bianca Andreescu 7-6(4), 6-1 to secure her place in the fourth round, marking her first time reaching this stage at Wimbledon. This victory also makes her the first player to qualify for the second week of Wimbledon 2024. Paolini has now reached the fourth round or better in every Grand Slam this year, and she currently holds the joint-most Women's Singles Grand Slam matches won in 2024, with 12 victories, equalling Coco Gauff. Notably, she had never won a match at Wimbledon before this year.
