Germany’s Sabine Lisicki began the second week with a huge shock by sending holder Serena Williams to the exits 6-2, 1-6, 6-4. The demolition of the top seed and heavy favorite after exits last week from Maria Sharapova and Victoria Azarenka was the fourth win by the No. 24 Lisicki over a French Open champion at Wimbledon. Her previous victims: Svetlana Kuznetsova, Li Na and Sharapova.
The winner stormed through the opening set, was rolled in the second by Williams and battled back from a break in the third after trailing 3-1. Williams saved a match point in the final game but otherwise had little to offer as Lisicki ran her ragged in just over two hours.
“I’m so happy, this is just unbelievable,” said Lisicki, 23, who won her 17th Wimbledon match. “Serena played fantastic. but it’s just an amazing feeling to win this match. Centre is such a special court for me. I was doing my best and fighting for every point. I had to give everything I had.”
Elsewhere in the fourth round sixth-seeded Li Na beat Italian 11th seed Roberta Vinci 6-2, 6-0. 2011 champion Petra Kvitova, seeded eighth, struggled but won over Spain’s Carla Suarez Navarro 7-6(5), 6-3. Kvitova next faces Belgian Kirsten Flipkens, a 7-6 (7-2), 6-3 winner over Italy’s Flavia Pennetta.
British hopes took a hit as crowd darling Laura Robson lost to Estonian Kaia Kanepi 7-6 (8-6), 7-5. Robson was the first British woman since 1988 to get this far at the home grand slam. “I was putting a lot of pressure on myself. At the end of the first set, I had my chances. I served for it, in the tiebreak, as well.
“I was just trying to will myself to play unbelievable tennis when just making a serve would have been fine.
