2021 Wimbledon Tennis News, Women Singles Final Review of Ash Barty v Karolina Pilskova

by Sports Benches

This year’s Wimbledon women singles final is incredible to watch.

Great start to build a great 1st set base from Ash Barty at 6-3 which isn’t hard.

She may have fought tough close battles against Karolina Pilskova along the way, having lost the second set 6-7 via the tiebreaker (2-7).

The competitiveness remained top quality going into the 3rd set, as Pilskova did her best to stay in contention.

But it’s Barty who pulled off first at the finish line, when she overcame another stage of huge duels against Pilskova at 6-3. That is enough to crown her as this year’s Wimbledon ladies singles champion.

Well done on making the whole entire of Australia proud Ash!!

And fair play to Pilskova on her fightback from the 2nd set after a slow start, she just couldn’t find the time needed to hold back Barty.

Onto to the Matteo Berrettini v Novak Djokovic meeting in the Men’s Singles Final tomorrow now.

2021 Wimbledon Tennis News, Men’s semi-final singles matchup review

by Sports Benches

Two wild matchups to end the Friday sessions at The Championships in Wimbledon, London.

We start with Matteo Berrettini v Hubert Hurkacz in the 1st match up when it wasn’t hard for Berrettini to win the first two sets, 6-3 & 6-0.

Although, he may be denied a straight sets chance to close out at the first attempt, as Hurkacz began to fought back with the 3rd set tiebreaker at 6-7 (won 4-7).

But Berrettini recovered immediately that was enough to land himself a spot in the final despite a close battle in the 4th set, 6-4.

Then we move on between Novak Djokovic & Denis Shapovalov in the 2nd semis game, where this next winner will get to face Berrettini on Sunday.

Shapovalov never gave up in each set through close battles v Novak, despite trying to stay in contention & hold him back.

But as always the opponent he faced today is a proven grand slam champion that found it so difficult, as Novak fended Shapovalov off with a straight sets win, 7-6 (7-3 tiebreaker), 7-5 & 7-5.

Well we have two brilliant final meetings over the weekend, one is Ash Barty v Karolina Pilskova later tonight for the women’s singles crown.

And Sunday gives two chances for Italy to close out in glory, not only Matteo Berrettini is looking for his first grand slam silverware.

But he hopes his home country can also beat England in the UEFA Euro 2020 Final, which is 42 mins away distance at Wembley Stadium.

Or will Novak deny Berrettini & end up with Grand Slam title No.20 on Centre Court? We’ll wait and see.

Tennis News, 2021 Wimbledon Women Singles Semi-Final review

by Sports Benches

Great semi final matchup from Ash Barty at the Championships in Wimbledon, where she fired off well in the first set 5-3.

Although, Angelique Kerber began to chase her down when she led the majority of this next set 3-5.

But it’s Barty who eliminated Kerber with a brilliant comeback from behind, as she clinched the tiebreaker 7-6 (6-3). That is enough to advance into the final through straight sets.

Then we look at the other semi clash between Karolina Pilskova & Aryna Sabalenka.

Great start from the beginning in Sabalenka during a close first set battle, having gone ahead early at 5-7.

However, you cannot underestimate Pilskova where she dominated most of this 2nd semis game.

The competitiveness against one another is not easy along the way, but Pilskova managed to get the job done with the next two set wins, 6-4, 6-4.

Now we’re down between just Ash Barty & Karolina Pilskova in the women’s singles final this Saturday. It will be such a wild contest for sure & see who will lift this crown first.

Tennis News, Ash Barty v Katerina Siniakova R3 2021 Wimbledon Match Up

by Sports Benches

Great game from Ash Barty today in the third round, as she advances through to the Round of 16.

A first set is there to begin with at 6-3, so easy for Ash to get ahead.

Although, great fightback from Katerina Siniakova after the break 5-5 in the 2nd set.

But she just can’t past Ash to keep this game alive when the World No.1 wrapped this game up in straight sets, 7-5.

Interesting next contest for Ash when she will face this year’s French Open women’s singles champion, Barbora Krejcikova.

by Sports Benches

One of the highlights to close out Day 1 of the 2021 Wimbledon Championship.

Andy Murray fired off with the first two sets, may have began to falter in the third by Nikoloz Basilashvili from Georgia. But even in the toughest of battles in the fourth set, Andy Murray found his way at least to advance into the 2nd round.

Well played to Basilashvili who began to hold him back after the 2nd set, just couldn’t find time to keep this game alive.

Final Score: 6-4, 6-3, 5-7, 6-3
