Viljamsai izgāšanās arī Vimbldonā
Pasaules dāmu tenisa pirmā rakete Serēna Viljamsa šogad nevienā "Grand Slam" turnīrā nav tikusi līdz ceturtdaļfinālam. Amerikāniete šodien lietainajā Vimbldonā 3. kārtas mačā ar 6:1, 3:6, 4:6 kapitulēja Francijas labākajai tenisistei Alizē Kornē.
Alizē Kornē ir viena no četrām tenisistēm, kura šosezon spējusi uzveikt pasaules pirmo raketi. Alizē to februārī paveica Dubaijas pusfinālā (6:4, 6:4), bet Vimbldonā viņas izredzes tik labas nebija. Kornē līdz šim ne reizi "Grand Slam" līmenī nebija pārspējusi Top 20 spēlētāju (0-13), nemaz nerunājot par pasaules pirmo numuru. Un tomēr lietainā 28. jūnija pievakare bija laiks, kad Kornē pārtrauca šo nelāgo sēriju.
Mačs sākās pusdienlaikā, taču pirms lietus ierašanās izdevās nospēlēt vien dažus geimus. Serēna Viljamsa vēlāk pēc atgriešanās kortā 1. setu savā labā pabeidza ar graujošu 6:1. Vairāk par vienu setu sakarīgā līmenī amerikāniete nospēlēt neprata un nākamos divus zaudēja samērā pārliecinoši. Kornē 2. setā bija vadībā ar 5:0, bet 3. setā ar 5:2. Maču francūzietei izdevās izservēt ar otro mēģinājumu, jo pirmajā piegājienā viņai izšķirošajos brīžos nebija pirmās serves.
Serēna, kura "Australian Open" zaudēja 4. kārtā, bet "French Open" izstājās jau 2. kārtā, šodien aizvadīja ļoti sliktu maču – amerikānietei bija acīmredzamas problēmas ar kustēšanos, tāpat ļoti daudz rupju kļūdu vienkāršās situācijās. Septiņas dubultkļūdas ir viens no rādītājiem, kas raksturo viņas nelāgo dienu.
Viljamsai ceturtdaļfinālā pēc izlozes bija paredzēta tikšanās ar Mariju Šarapovu, taču, tāpat kā "French Open", arī Vimbldonā šāda mača (kas būtu 2004. gada fināla atkārtojums) nebūs. Šarapova turnīrā spēlē fantastiski, pirmajos trīs mačos zaudējot tikai septiņus geimus. Krievijas pirmā rakete šodien ar 6:3, 6:0 sagrāva Elisonu Riski. Amerikāniete cīņu sāka ļoti straujā tempā, kam Šarapova nebija gatava, un izvirzijās vadībā ar 3:1. Maša ātri savācās un uzvarēja 11 geimos pēc kārtas. Riske pēc zaudējuma nezaudēja humora izjūtu un atzīmējās ar šādu tvītu.

Pirmo reizi "Grand Slam" 4. kārtu sasniegusi Kazahstānas pārstāve Zarina Dijasa (WTA 72.), kura ar 7:6(1), 3:6, 6:3 apspēlēja 2010. gada finālisti Veru Zvonarjovu. Viņa Vimbldonā startēja, pateicoties "wild card". Sestdien nepabeidza divas 3. kārtas spēles. Rīt turnīrā tradicionālā pirmās svētdienas brīvdiena.

Karolinai pietrūkst prāta, Agneskai ciska, bet žēl nebūtu nemaz ja uzvarētu.

World 107 Frank Dancevic heavily criticises...
I have to say that I'm extremely disappointed at the player services at Wimbledon Qualifying this year. Given that it is the biggest tournament in the world you would think that the payers would feel welcome and comfortable on site. Let me give you my experience last night.
I played my second round match starting at 6pm . I got through 6-7, 7-6, 6-2. The match lasted nearly two and a half hours. Given the fact I just arrived from Clay courts on Saturday and that I have to play last round Qualies 3-5 set match on Grass thursday, I needed to move quickly and do as much regeneration-Nutrition as quickly as possible. My plan of attack was to take my recovery drink,Stretch, Ice bath, Massage, and eat dinner. I need to move as quickly as possible to be able to wind down and rest afterwards. Here is how it actually panned out!!!
It is now 8:45 after I showered, I find out the player restaurant closes at 9pm. So I have no choice but to drop my tennis bag in the players lounge and eat first. No problem. I got to see the choices..Left over thai curry or pasta with meat sauce. Not an idea meal for after a match but ok I pound a bowl of pasta with Meat sauce.
Next I rush to the physio's hoping that they are still around to get a stretch. I see that they are in fact there and there is a few guys lined up before me. No problem.. I wait 15 minutes and get a good stretch.
Next Ice bath.. Physio tells me ''Sorry Frank there is no ice bath on site, The players are using a Garbage bin and filling it with Water and ice'' Haha WHAT..'' But unfortunately the staff left for the day and there is no more ice.. Are you serious. A multi million dollar federation and facility with no Ice bath for players… Ok no problem..
Next is Massage. I see a line up of players who finished before me waiting in line. I ask the Massage therapist how long the wait is approx. And he said he's not sure but minimum 1 hour. And here is another major issue. 2 massage therapists for 128 singles players. Are these guys serious? This is Wimbledon people!!! Get your S##t together. Add 2 more therapists and everyone is out at 8:30pm. It's unfair to everyone.
Ok No problem I need to wait for a massage because I have a 3-5 set match coming up. As I'm laying on the table waiting for a massage, my Coach comes running in panicking. ''F++k the transportation doesn't want to wait for use''.. '' They told me 10pm is the deadline''.. '' They want to leave'' WHAT haha. I tell him to go and argue with them to hold a car for me for 30 minutes.. He goes and comes back..''No they don't want to wait''… The head of transportation told him that Planes don't wait for passengers so why should they wait for us.. Also told him that he is rich and he can afford a taxi.HAHAHAH.. I can't believe what is happening at this point. It's 10pm there is 2 other players getting a massage before me and all this is going on. one of the players hears the news and runs for transport to catch his ride. So I tell my coach to go back to transportation and beg them to hold a car.. I finish my massage around 10:35 and realize I left my bag in the players lounge. I go to open the door and its LOCKED.. ARE YOU SERIOUS. I can't get my bag out of the lounge and all the staff left the site.. The car didn't wait.. Everybody left..
So here I am at 10:45pm. Standing with another player in the same situation. No Bag, No car.. At this point I just want to head back and rest. After walking around the premises I find a security guard.. He was very nice.. he unlocked the Lounge where I got my Bag and called a taxi for us. We finally left the site at 11pm… Sad that this goes on at the most prestigious event in the wold!!!
