Tennis Favorites at Olympics Are Winning

It’s so far, so good for Roger Federer and Serena Williams as the Grand Slam pair aim to duplicate their recent Wimbledon titles with career-first singles gold medals at the London Olympics.

Both multiple champion came through swirling windy conditions at the All England club in second-round matches. Between them Federer and Williams own 31 career singles trophies at the majors.

Federer was pleased with his 6-2, 6-2 victory over France’s Benneteau in just 58 minutes. Williams tamed Pole Urszula Radwanska 6-2, 6-3.

“The conditions were different. Obviously the roof was open, there was a bit of a swirly wind and I think he might have struggled a little bit with his serve in these conditions,” said Federer after beating the Frenchman who gave him trouble a month ago at Wimbledon.

“I think he also injured himself at the very end so that was unfortunate, but I was able to put together a solid performance today.”

Williams, a 30-year-old like Federer, fired off a win in an hour and a quarter. “It was a little windy. I’m glad I was able to pull through,” she said.

Federer and Stan Wawrinka won the Beijing doubles gold medal while Williams has claimed team gold with her sister Venus.
