The program for Monday at Wimbledon 

The program for Monday at Wimbledon

27.06.2011


The second week of Wimbledon begins in an exceptional way. With a second round match of the tournament.

Of course, the greatest interest will expect the presentation of Tsvetana Pironkova, who for the second consecutive year will attempt to win five times Wimbledon champion Venus Williams and second year to reach quarterfinals in London.

Venus did no good memories of matches with Pironkova, and for some its fate would have told her sister Serena in the tournament in Eastbourne, but then pulled the American victory in three sets.

Tsvetana Pironkova itself will have the honor to play on Centre Court at Wimbledon, immediately after the match to Andy Murray and Richard Gasquet, who is expected however is not the shortest. So it is unrealistic to expect a battle of the Bulgarian commence before 17.30 hours, at best.

Pironkova and Grigor Dimitrov will also play doubles.

The other favorite for women - Caroline Wozniacki, Maria Sharapova, Petra Kvitova and Serena Williams also have tough tests and is not uncommon to see unexpected results.

It is expected that the first three in the world - Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer have no problems in their meetings. The most laborious task seems to Nadal, who must cope with Juan Martin del Potro, who has no experience while the grass is always a threat.
