Laura Siegemund continued her success in Wimbledon and thrown out the Australian Open winner Madison Keys. The 37-year-old defeated the American 6: 3, 6: 3 on Friday after a strong performance and first moved into the round of 16 of the classic lawn in her long career.
There, the double specialist will meet Argentine Solana Sierra on Sunday, who as a Lucky Loser has penetrated into the top 16 during her Wimbledon debut. Siegemund, already the winner against Leylah Fernandez set in the second round, is the last remaining German in the tournament.
Siegemund also occurs in doubles and mixed in London, their triumphal march in singles also comes as a surprise to you. On Friday, she annoyed the world ranking night with her flat game and many stops from the start, and basic line tries to avoid her. That worked out excellently, keys did not look at height and produced many simple mistakes.
In the second set, too, the better player was victorious, and Keys’ rearing was not available. Siegemund used her fourth match ball to win. Before victory, Eva Lys (2nd round) and Tatjana Maria and Ella Seidel (each 1st round) were eliminated.
