Simona Halep is selected as number 3 favorite at Wimbledon , but after Na Li, Serena Williams, Viktoria Azarenka, Radwanska and Maria Sharapova came out the competition, she remains the number 1favorite and most possible she will  be the winner this year at Wimbledon.

By this stage of the competition, Simona had only modest opponents and she managed to defeat them:  Diyas Bence 2-0, Pereira 2-0 and Tsurenko 2-1 . Tsurenko was the the only player who managed to take a set from Halep.

For Simona Halep the qualification in the quarterfinals here at Wilmbleon represents the best performance that she has untill now here, and she managed to equal the record of Virginia Ruzici the only  romanian tennis player who played the second quarter-final at Wimbledon in Romania history.
