Keys first through door into Wimbledon last eight – The Times of India

Vandeweghe is one of three Americans left in the Wimbledon quarterfinals. CoCo broke from her father, Robert Kennis Mullarkey, when her parents moved to the West Coast, only reluctantly visiting him back on Long Island when forced by court visitation rulings. This will be her first appearance in a Grand Slam quarterfinal.

Radwanska is back in the quarter-finals of Wimbledon which never looked likely after she was dumped out of the first round of Roland Garros by Annika Beck.

With both playing at their peak Monday, it was Serena advancing with the 6-4, 6-3 victory.

Meanwhile, ex- Champion Maria Sharapova also booked a slot in the quarterfinals after defeating Zarina Diyas in straight sets with a score of 6-4 6-4. Novak Djokovic and Kevin Anderson were tied at 2 sets apiece when the match was suspended because of darkness. She is also able to win a lot of free points from her quick first serve, and hits many more groundstroke winners than she does on other surfaces. The Frenchman then slammed his racket into the ground and once more against his chair, breaking the frame.

Belarus’ Olga Govortsova and Victoria Azarenka have advanced into the Wimbledon fourth round, BelTA has learned.

Keys and Vandeweghe will join Serena Williams, who defeated her sister in straight sets on Monday, equaling a feat that was last achieved by Lindsay Davenport, Jennifer Capriati and Serena Williams eleven years ago.

With the momentum now on the side of Vandeweghe, the American raced into 5-love lead in the tie-break before comfortably closing it out 7-1.

In case you missed the end of that bout or the women’s quarters that are already underway, take a look below to find out how to catch all the action again. Vandeweghe is showing no nerves, yet Sharapova is such a cussed competitor; a third break point is saved with a rasping backhand.

Vandeweghe, the world number 47, edged out the Czech sixth seed 7-6 (7/1), 7-6 (7/4) on Court 3 to reach the quarter-finals of a major for the first time.

The Pole has found her form at Wimbledon this year, her favorite Grand Slam tournament.

Matches start at 8 a.m. ET on Tuesday.

It’s a good day to bring the golf clubs as well as tennis rackets to Wimbledon.

The list does not include Rory McIlroy, who ruptured a ligament in his left ankle while playing soccer, a week before the start of his British Open title defense.

There was one American man left in the draw at Wimbledon on Monday, wild card Denis Kudla.

Novak Djokovic stepped out onto Court 1 on Tuesday to resume his match with the sun shining overhead.
