Bia Haddad conheceu nesta sexta-feira (27) seu chaveamento no Grand Slam de Wimbledon. Assim, um encontro com a italiana Jasmine Paolini, número 4 do mundo, pode ser possível. Portanto, os torcedores clamaram para a tenista brasileira espantar o fantasma da freguesia.
Chaveamento de Bia Haddad em Wimbledon
A estreia de Bia Haddad em Wimbledon será contra a eslovaca Rebecca Sramkova, 36ª do ranking do WTA. Em quatro partidas que elas se encontraram até hoje, há grande equilíbrio. Isso porque a brasileira venceu duas e sua adversária também.
Se conseguir passar por Sramkova nessa primeira rodada, Bia Haddad Maia pode encarar Harriet Dart ou Dalma Galfi. Ambas as possíveis adversárias da R2 estão no top 70 do ranking do WTA, bem distantes da realidade competitiva da brasileira.
O grande bicho-papão para Bia Haddad em Wimbledon começa a partir das oitavas, quando ela pode enfrentar Jasmine Paolini. Isso porque Bia Haddad Maia jamais conseguiu vencer a italiana na sua carreira. Inclusive, na última quinta-feira (26), elas se enfrentaram, e a número 4 do mundo venceu de novo por 2 a 0, em Bad Homburg. Assim, são quatro duelos entre elas na história, com quatro vitórias de Paolini.
Mesmo assim, se Bia Haddad conseguir espantar esse fantasma da freguesia com Paolini, não terá caminho fácil em Wimbledon. Nas quartas poderia haver um confronto duro com Zheng, 5ª do ranking. Depois, na semifinal, um duelo com a número 1 do mundo, Sabalenka, seria inevitável. Por fim, uma possível decisão do troféu poderia ser contra Gauff, 2ª do mundo.
Chaveamento de Bia Haddad em Wimbledon:
- Primeira rodada: Sramkova (36ª)
- Segunda rodada: Dart (71ª) ou Galfi (79ª)
- Terceira rodada: Putintseva (34ª) ou Anisimova (13ª)
- Oitavas de final: Paolini (4ª) ou Noskova (30ª)
- Quartas de final: Zheng (5ª), Jabeur (59ª), Ostapenko (20ª) ou Shnaider (12ª)
- Semifinais: Sabalenka (1ª), Keys (6ª), Badosa (9ª) ou Svitolina (14ª)
- Final: Gauff (2ª), Pegula (3ª), Swiatek (8ª) ou Rybakina (11ª)
Torcida confia em reviravolta
De olho no chaveamento, um torcedor deu sua opinião sobre o caminho de Bia Haddad em Wimbledon: “Anisimova e Paolini são os maiores desafios. Acho que a Zheng nem chega nas quartas. Semifinal é factível demais”, afirmou. Enquanto isso, outro apoiador pediu para a brasileira afastar de vez a freguesia com a italiana: “Tem que ganhar, chega de freguesia. Tomara que a Bia chegue até lá”.
Com a derrota da última quinta-feira (26) ainda latejando na cabeça, maioria dos torcedores pedem ‘vingança’ contra Paolini. “A revanche contra a Paolini vem”, afirmou um apoiador da brasileira. Enquanto isso, outro afirmou: “Quero vingança contra Paolini”.

Deontay Wilder scores stoppage knockout of Tyrrell Herndon for first win in three years
Deontay Wilder is back in the win column. After losing back-to-back fights and four of five, the former WBC heavyweight champion returned to the ring in Wichita, Kansas to stop Tyrrell Herndon in the seventh round on Friday.Wilder was much more aggressive in the opening round than he was against Joseph Parker and Zhilei Zhang, pushing forward behind the jab. Herndon did little beyond circling away and looking to avoid contact, which he did well, avoiding most of Wilder's fire. Wilder continued to pressure in the second round and scored his first knockdown with a cuffing left hook that caught Herndon off balance and sent him stumbling to the canvas. Not particularly hurt by the shot, Herndon survived the round. As the rounds ticked by, Herndon tried to find small spots to unload big punches, and when he threw, Wilder […]
The legacy of Lionel Messi’s underwhelming time as a Paris Saint-Germain player
May 2023 proved to be a watershed month for Paris Saint-Germain.Up to that point, the French giants’ sporting project seemed to be faltering, certainly in relation to their ultimate goal of lifting the Champions League. Serial winners domestically, PSG had reached the point where only success in Europe’s premier club competition could bring them the validation they craved.AdvertisementThe problem they had was that nothing they did seemed to bring them closer. Even the signing of one of the world’s greatest players in Lionel Messi, who joined on a free transfer in August 2021, had not sufficiently moved the dial. If anything, adding the Argentinian to a front line already containing fellow stars Kylian Mbappe and Neymar only served to create additional layers of complexity and dysfunction.Two years on, they are finally European champions thanks to a 5-0 rout of Inter […]
Club World Cup prize money rankings: How much has each team earned so far?
Forty-eight games down, 15 to go.FIFA’s new, engorged Club World Cup has completed its group stage, 16 clubs are on their way home and, over the next fortnight, the remaining 16 will tussle to lift a trophy so gaudy even Louis XIV might have turned his nose up at it.Alongside that (notably heavy) trinket, whoever runs out victorious in East Rutherford in mid-July will also bank themselves a hefty cash prize. The winners of this summer’s tournament will earn a further $74.1million (£54m), including $40m from the final alone, on top of what they have already pocketed from the competition — and much of FIFA’s $1billion prize pot has now been allocated.AdvertisementEven before the round of 16 begins, we already know where nearly three-quarters of the money will go: $525m in participation fees were doled out before a ball was […]
