Anđelija razvaljuje na GS-ovima jer je jedina koja se može podičiti da ima pozitivni skor u finalnim susretima s najvećom u povijesti. No na manjim je turnirima poprilično suzdržana. Podsjeća na Siliča i Stana. Dobro, oni se ne mogu pohvaliti da u finalima imaju pozitivu s najvećim čije ime počinje sa R...

But no one could have anticipated what would unfold on the fabled Centre Court as Kerber collided with  Williams for the second time in a title-round contest there. Serena had won 23 of 29 major finals as she approached this meeting with Kerber. In addition to losing to the German at the Australian Open final of 2016, Williams had suffered setbacks in Grand Slam tournament finals only to her sister Venus (twice), Maria Sharapova, Sam Stosur and Garbine Muguruza. Her propensity to rise to large occasions and take matters into her own hands has been extraordinary, second to no one in the modern era.

Serena Williams Bumps Into Reality and Loses Wimbledon Final to Kerber

 

 

WIMBLEDON, England — The focus has understandably been on Serena Williams’s comeback this season.

She was the tennis superstar returning from childbirth with Margaret Court’s record of 24 Grand Slam singles titles in her sights.

She was the one showing the way, at age 36, for working mothers and older athletes to keep striving for more.

But Angelique Kerber’s comeback has some lessons for the wider world as well: about persistence, about overcoming weaknesses by developing your strengths, and about sticking to your very fine game plan in a Wimbledon final against an opponent of superior power and experience.

Kerber struggled last season after winning two Grand Slam titles in 2016 and moving up to the No. 1 ranking. But at 30, she has made an emphatic return to the top, reaching the semifinals of the Australian Open in January and then winning the trophy she has long wanted most by defeating Williams, 6-3, 6-3, on Saturday.

“No way,” said Kerber as she stared at her name on the board of champions inside the clubhouse after the match. “That was always a dream of mine.”

Kerber grew up watching her role model, Steffi Graf, win Wimbledon on television, including the last of Graf’s seven victories here, which came in 1996.

 
 

Now, 22 years later, Kerber has given Germany another women’s singles champion at Wimbledon and also given her nation something of a sporting lift.

“After a really embarrassing World Cup, we needed something,” said Boris Becker, the former Wimbledon men’s champion from Germany, in comments to the BBC.

Williams, seeded No. 25 but ranked just 181st in the fourth tournament of her comeback, was far from her best on Saturday, far from the form she displayed in her resounding semifinal victory over Julia Görges, Kerber’s German compatriot.

The women’s final began about two hours later than scheduled because of the completion of the men’s semifinal between Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal, which had been suspended on Friday night.

Williams looked on edge from the start, making a series of unforced errors in the opening two games. But that was also a credit to the steady play and nerves of Kerber, who would make only five unforced errors in the entire match.

Seeded 11th, Kerber played a remarkable, purposeful final — absorbing pace as she does as well as anyone in tennis but also being bold when she needed it.

“I feel Angie started the tournament a bit slow and more with her older game, with just running and fighting,” her coach, Wim Fissette, said. “And after the second round she decided that, ‘With this tennis, I’m not going to win. So I have to play my offensive tennis, especially when I need it.’”

Against Williams, Kerber won the first set with her signature shot: a forehand winner down the line. And when Kerber served for the match in the second set, Williams threw up a high defensive shot at 30-30 that landed deep, a shot that required Kerber to generate the pace. She did not shrink from the responsibility: she nailed another forehand down the line that landed on the opposite baseline with a puff of chalk for another winner.

 

When Williams lost the next point, the final point, with a backhand return into the net, Kerber dropped her racket, pitched forward onto her knees and began to cry as she lay on the grass and the dirt.

 

When she eventually rose to her feet and dusted herself off as best she could, she and Williams met on Kerber’s side of the net for an extended embrace and conversation.

This is becoming a Grand Slam tradition, this contrast of styles. And Kerber has now won two of their three duels in major finals: defeating Williams in the 2016 Australian Open final, losing to Williams in the 2016 Wimbledon final and winning on Saturday.

Kerber, who also won the United States Open in 2016, has now won three of the four Grand Slam singles titles, lacking only the French Open.

 

Williams, a seven-time Wimbledon champion, has won all four majors at least three times, but, for now, her total remains at 23, one short of Court’s record.

Fissette, a Belgian who has coached a number of leading players, said he was convinced Williams would get to 24.

“I think it’s amazing where she is right now,” he said. “I saw her also at the beginning of the tournament, where I don’t think she played well, but how she’s able to raise her level.”

Fissette said he felt Williams’s relatively easy draw, in which she faced no seeded players in the first five rounds, might have made it difficult for her to find the necessary gear on Saturday.

“I feel like she didn’t really get challenged, and I think that’s something she missed,” he said. “But her movement keeps getting better. Her shots are always very good, and I feel she just missed experience in matches against a really top player who is rock solid, like Angie.”

Williams has spoken about the delights of playing freely with nothing to lose during her matches at Wimbledon this year, but on Saturday she played and sounded like a champion who was feeling the pressure.

“To all the moms out there, I was playing for you today, and I tried,” she said, tearing up in her post-match interview on court.

 

Williams had played — and won — the 2017 Australian Open while two months pregnant, but she did not play again on tour until 13 months later. She gave birth to her daughter, Olympia, on Sept. 1, 2017 and suffered complications after her cesarean section, including a pulmonary embolism.

Williams acknowledged she may have come back too soon, and struggled with her fitness and her timing in her four matches in March, losing two of them. She took another two-month break before returning for the French Open in late May, winning three matches before withdrawing with a pectoral injury. With six more victories at Wimbledon, Williams at least assured herself of a much-better ranking, one that will rise to 28 on Monday.

“I was really happy to get this far,” she said after the match, adding: “I’m literally just getting started.” (NEW YORK TIMES)

Sta reci. Djokovicu i nadalu svaka cast,a ostali nek se misle jer sport postaje ruglo. Uskoro ce to bit sport rezerviran za penzionere. Vec sad imamo situaciju da veterani samaraju mlade decke. Nije daleko od situacije iz boksa gdje se umirovljenik vraca (holyfield) i natambura svjetskog prvaka (valujev). Sto je jos gore obadvojica rekovalescenti. Ili nivo profesionalnog  tenisa nije vise ono sto promidzba gura ili su veterani na nekom jakom dopingu ili mladci po uzoru na nogometase previse vremena provode ispred konzola,sto povlaci prvo ili su mladci zadovoljni 4. Kolom jer i to donosi ogromne novce,svake godine sve vise, i nemaju natjecateljskog duha.

Pretjerali su s novcima. Prije 50 godina pobjednik je dobivao 2000 funti. Danas 2.250 milijuna funti.

Ma jasno je svakom tko imalo prati tenis da nam za par godina slijedi totalno nezanimljiv tenis..ovo sto su nam pruzili RF, Rafa i Djoker ce tesko neka generacija ponoviti, plus uvijek neugodni Wawrinka te Murray....imam osjecaj da ovi klinci ne uzivaju ni trecinu kao momci navedeni prije, a niti se daju da bi dosli na njihovu razinu...Thiem ce gotovo sigurno biti kralj zemlje kad se Rafa umirovi, Zverev je puno kompletniji od Thiema, ali fali mu ono nesto, prvenstveno mislim na kondiciju i pripremljenost, a onda i na odnos prema tenisu, nekako mi djeluje totalno neozbiljan(iako je klinac)...Kyrgios je jedan isto neozbiljan tenisac, koji je rekao da uzme GS sutradan bi se umirovio, sta jos ostaje Coric i Shapovalov...sve je to srednja zalost, nadajmo se da ce iz narednih generacija izaci bar 2-3 mladica da nam vrate zelju za gledanjem tenisa, jer kad se ovi veterani umirove meni ce tenis biti totalno nezanimljiv, a obozavam ga i nekad sam gledao na desetke meceva tjedno
