Agnieszka Radwanska Wants to Forget Her Historical Match as Soon as Possible

Olympic historians will remember Julia Goerges first round win over Agnieszka Radwanska but the beaten Wimbledon finalist will want to purge the memory of her demise as soon as possible.

With rain falling and Wimbledon’s retractable roof closed, the German v Polish confrontation was the first Olympic tennis match to be played indoors since Stockholm in 1912 when some of the matches were played in a pavilion on wooden courts painted black.

Given the velocity of Goerges serve, the total of 20 aces she clubbed past Radwanska could easily have been doubled on fast wood and not once did she seem overawed to be playing on Centre Court for the first time in her career.

“You just go there and enjoy it,” Goerges said. “You just play there as you warmed up outside. The courts were different. But that’s, for both, the same.”

Just 22 days earlier Radwanska had been the first Pole to appear in a Wimbledon singles final for 75 years but she looked to be playing in an alien environment with the slick conditions suiting a big hitter rather than a counter puncher.

Many players had praised the diligent work of the All England Club ground staff in getting the grass back to a playable standard in the space of three weeks after the conclusion of the Championships. But with the pain of defeat affecting her humility, Radwanska was less than impressed.

It feels like it’s already been used for two weeks and there are a lot of bad bounces,” said the 23 year-old from Krakow . “For sure it’s not the same court that it was three weeks ago.”
