Yeah I have to agree with those tipping Keys as an outside bet. I think Serena could have potential trouble in Round 3 against Mladenovic but other than that she could coast through. I'd back Serena over Keys in a final, but if Serena slips up prior to that, Keys is definitely my pick. Wouldn't want to come up against Cibulkova or Strycova in the first week.

McHale also pushed Serena recently.They play next up.Keys is my Dark Horse to reach the final against Serena.The last 2 GS finals Serena's serve and footwork have been off,she also needs to play more aggressive tennis.Serena has a great record at Wimbledon.Early days.

Venus is on Court 18. WTF?

Venus is on Court 18. WTF?

Yeah, kind of lacking a bit of respect for a 5 time champion.

 

[britbox]

Madison Keys locked in a final set decider with Kirsten Flipkens.

 

[britbox]

Keys wins the decider to run out 6-4 4-6 6-3.

 

[HellsBells]

Venus is through but it took 3 sets. Theorganisers should be ashamed sticking her out on Court 18.
