Ivanovic Survives Scare..Barely
It was close. Awfully close. Way too close for my liking - I can only imagine what Ana Ivanovic thought after barely surviving a 6-7, 7-6, 10-8 second round match with Nathalie Dechy at Wimbledon.
I followed it closely on the computer until it was 7-all in the third set. Then I had to go to work. I tried throwing a childish temper tantrum, but when you’re the one that knows you have to force yourself into going to work - well - temper tantrums just don’t get very far at all.
So Ivanovic is still with us. Although she won’t be for long if she doesn’t pull her act together. Surprisingly enough, guess who else is still with us on our Wimbledon journey. Oh posh, you’ll never guess. Amelie Mauresmo!
Enjoy it while you can, however, because her third round opponent is Serena Williams. Not saying Mauresmo can’t win, I’m just saying she won’t be with us much longer.
Svetlana Kuznetsova bounced back nicely after her near-disaster in the first round and put together a simple straight-set victory over Kateryna Bondarenko.
Oh, and Roger Federer breezed through his second round match too. Robin Soderling, the guy that was potential trouble for the King, pushed Roger to a tiebreak in the third set but it was far too little far too late. Should both win in the third round, though, we’ll be having us a Hewitt-Federer match-up. Yay!…?
