Donna, you are a true grit player and this was worthy of a final. You must have had so much pain to deal with. Next year you will win!

[@hiwayman981]

Bravo to Donna for a tournament well played. When she finally held for 6-6 in the third set, I literally said out loud that she'd already won...not that the tie-break was hers to lose, but because I felt like she played so well under adverse conditions (tired, hurt), and because she did not play against herself, as has been the case in the past, but just against her opponent. She saved a couple of match points, and forced the deciding tie-breaker, at which time she played to a point where the result could have gone for either woman; she did not beat herself. That is the victory for Donna Vekic for today.

[@pawshands9706]

The match was a grueling battle, but Jasmine help her own and fought like a tiger. Both players were exquisite 🎉🎉🎉

[@crazycatpetera1404]

The way she saved both of those match points was phenomenal - so brave! Both times she hit to the lines and actually saved them rather that hoping for Paolini to miss. She’s still only just turned 28 and as Paolini also shows, everyone progresses at different rates. Her physicality let her down in the end, hopefully she can use this as motivation to refine her physicality and bring for the rest of the year. I can see her winning this title eventually.

[@ivanacvrtila4097]

[@sonicmoj1]

Just imagine how tough this was just to get to her first GS final and to think that Djokovic did this 24 times in a best of 5 is unworldly what these athletes have to put up with (mental strength, physical condition, diet, training, etc). Just amazing.

Donna you’re a better player than years before hold on to that be proud of your Wimbledon Tournament it was fantastic 👍👏

[@andreagirolami6869]

In the final tiebreak on the score of 8 all the last two points were two missed forehands by Donna. I can't say if these were unforced or forced errors, but She striked them with all the power, courage and grit that has distinguished her entire career. So now I really hope She can have another chance to get to the final and win this tournament, in my opinion it would be a real fairytale.

She was so tough today.. and the Wimbledon crowd (and I say this as a Brit) are so fickle.. they obsessively support anyone jumping around and smiling like they’re the best human being on the planet and always go against fiery players like they’re awful people 😂 and it’s so pathetic. They’re just passionate and want it so badly - they’ve been working their entire life for it. She did so well considering the majority of the crowd were against her. She only lost due to physicality in the end, mentally she was there all the way and actually the braver of the two.. the way she saved both match points was almost more impressive in my eyes.. hopefully she can use this as motivation to refine her physicality so that she can win this title one day.

[@meph320]

I would say the British fans mainly support the underdog, but I think the support was pretty balanced. Both of them gave their all out there. Jasmine was passionate & smiley because that's her character and Donna was also passionate but intense. We will never really know if she would have won if she was feeling physically okay. It's a shame there is only one winner. It was a joy to watch.

I disagree. Mentally she matched her all the way - how she saved those two match points was so incredibly brave. Her physicality is what let her down.

That ish is HARD. She was hurt physically and psychologically. But she is a terrific tennis player, with a fantastic drop shot and powerful serve.

[@philipcross8121]

I was so gutted Vekic lost! Paolini is fantastic and her emergence has been incredible but I always remember Vekic losing an epic contest to Johanna Konta (also at Wimbledon) back in 2017, I think. She lost it 10-8 in the final set- this was before the advent of match tie-breaks at 6-6. My abiding memory of that match was a devastated Vekic crying on the shoulder of a consoling Konta right at the end (they are good friends). It feels like history is repeating itself for poor Vekic. This interview was hard to watch. Vekic still has the Olympics and certainly the US Open this year. She can still win a major, for sure.
