The 18th-seed Ekaterina Alexandrova will take on Belinda Bencic in the round of 16 of the 2025 Wimbledon championship. The Russian ace defeated Zeynep Sonmez in straight sets to reach the last-16. On the other hand, Belinda Bencic got better of Elisabetta Cocciaretto in a classic three-set thriller of the third round. The Swiss No. 1 came from a break down in the final set to clinch the round-of-16 ticket.

Alexandrova will chase her first ever Grand Slam quarterfinal after multiple exits at fourth-round stage. The Russian ace has played nine quarterfinals on grass court, including a title in Rosmalen and Linz this year. She has secured wins against Pegula, Sakkari, and Kudermetova this year in six quarterfinal appearances in 2025.

Belinda Bencic will be in pressure as she lost to Alexandrova two weeks back in Bad Hamburg in straight sets. She needed a tie-break to beat Cocciaretto in a match which lasted more than three hours, the longest women’s game of this tournament. She is also searching her first Wimbledon quarterfinals after reaching the R16 four times.
