SWEDES DEFEATED

Robin Soderling’s countrywoman, Sofia Arvidsson, has been defeated by Li Na of China in the second round of the ongoing US Open. Li won the match in the straight sets by 6-2, 6-2.

It was a dominating effort by Li who has been given the 5^th seed in this tournament. She was at the top of her game and played ruthless shots in both the sets. The Swedish youngster couldn’t find a way to tackle those shots and ended up suffering a big defeat.

This was the 3^rd match between these two players and Li has won all those matches.

Just when the match got over, it started raining. Li was thankful that the rain started after her match. Talking to the reporters in the post match interview, the Chinese superstar said, “It’s really hard for the other guys who will have to wait. Luckily, I am not one of them.”

“I had played against Sofia a couple of times in the past and she had given me a tough time on both the occasions. Even today, she fought hard. The score line might suggest that it was a one sided match, but, the reality is a bit different.”

“I rarely made mistakes on my serve today and that’s something which I am pretty happy about.”

Li got a great start in the opening set. She broke Arvidsson’s serve in the 2^nd game and was off to a lead of 2-0.

In the next 5 games, both the players held their serve and at the end of the 7^th game, Li was leading by 5-2.

With another breakthrough in the 8^th game, the Chinese player sealed the opener by 6-2.

Li began in the same fashion in the second set too. Again, she took a lead of 2-0 with a breakthrough in the second game. But, this time, Arvidsson managed to break back in the next game.

A serve hold for the Swedish player in the 4^th game made the score 2-2. But, after that, it was all about Li Na. She won the next 4 games with two consecutive breakthroughs and clinched the match.

In the next round, Li will face the winner of the match between Laura Robson of Britain and Caroline Garcia of France.

MURRAY WINS

Andy Murray has won the Wimbledon Championships 2013 by defeating the no. 1 player in the world Novak Djokovic in the final match. Murray won the match in the straight sets by 6-4, 7-5, 6-4.

This is the first time in the last 77 years that a British player has won the Wimbledon Championships. The last time that a British player had won this tournament was way back in 1936. Fred Perry had done that then.

Murray who was given the second seed in this tournament played fabulous tennis in the final match. He was dominant right from the outset and he didn’t give Djokovic any opportunity to settle down.

This was the 19^th match between these two players and Murray defeated Djokovic for the 8^th time.

Talking to the reporters in the post match interview, Murray said, “Last year, the final match was a big disappointment for me. It’s completely different this time around. It was not an easy match. The last game went on for quite long. Fortunately, I managed to sneak through somehow.”

“It’s really a special feeling. A lot of people desperately wanted a British player to win the Wimbledon Championships. I am glad that I fulfil their wishes.”

“Novak is a great fighter. He never gives up. The way he fought in that final game was incredible.”

On the other hand, Djokovic was looking hugely gutted. The Serbian superstar said, “I don’t want to make any excuses, but, I was physically struggling a bit after the tough last match. Andy played terrifically well and he deserved to lift the trophy. I want to congratulate him for his success.”

Djokovic had to toil hard for 283 minutes to defeat the Argentinean player Juan Martin Del Potro in the semi final match on Friday.
