Kevin Anderson Knocks Out No. 1 Roger Federer: Wimbledon 2018

By:Look Around Published on: July 11, 2018 12:47 pm Leave a Comment

LONDON — No. 1 Roger Federer saw his quest to conquer Wimbledon 2018 crashed after he squandered a big lead and fell to Kevin Anderson in the Wimbledon quarterfinals on Wednesday.

Federer, the defending champion, led after two sets, but blew a match point and, eventually fell to a stunning 2-6, 6-7 (5), 7-5, 6-4, 13-11 defeat in a 4 hours, 14 minutes battle with No. 8 Anderson of South Africa who kept his composure.

The defeat saw Federer falling to 266-3 in career Grand Slam matches winning the first two sets.

“I’m up two sets to one. It’s all good, so …” Federer said, reflecting back to when he dropped the third set. “At that point I wasn’t thinking of losing.”

The Switzerland star is an eight-time champion.

“I had moments where I was great … other moments where I don’t know where the hell I was moving to,” Federer said. “I don’t know if that was his serve. But I also have a feeling, it was a feeling of mine, you know, not getting it right.

“It’s just not one of my best days, but they don’t happen very often either. It’s one of those average days you have to try to win the match, and I just couldn’t get it done today. So it’s disappointing.”

Federer added: “I think I had my chances, so it’s disappointing… He was consistent. He was solid. He got what he needed when he had to. Credit to him for hanging around really that long.”

After saving a match point in the third set, Anderson went on the take complete charge of the contest.

“I just kept on telling myself I have to keep believing and I kept saying that today was going to be my day, because you really need that mindset taking the court against somebody like Roger,’’ said Anderson.

“If you go out there with doubts, or unsure what’s going to happen, like I maybe did a little bit in that first set, it’s not going to go your way. I just gave it my all and very ecstatic to get through that.

“As I said in the beginning of the week, my first goal was to try and go one step further than my best result here, but I also said that I wanted to put myself in these positions, so obviously fantastically happy about today.

“I’ve put myself in (with) a shot of hopefully playing on Sunday, so right now I’m going to have to really recover a lot and be ready for my next match on Friday.”

Anderson joins Novak Djokovic of Serbia in the semi-final at Wimbledon 2018.

Djokovic, who keeps looking better and better in each round, advanced to his first Grand Slam semifinal since 2016 by beating No. 24 Kei Nishikori of Japan, 6-3, 3-6, 6-2, 6-2.

The last time he won a major title was at the 2016 French Open.

“I like the level of tennis that I’m playing on right now. I really do. I think with the performances I’ve had, I deserve to be in the semifinals,” said Djokovic.

“I don’t want to stop here. I hope I can get a chance to fight for a trophy.”

He next takes on two-time champion and No.2 seed Rafael Nadal or fifth-seeded Juan Martin del Potro.

MELBOURNE — Results from the 2018 Australian Open Men’s Singles on Day 10 of the first Grand Slam tournament of the year on Wednesday, Jan. 24.

Leading the way was defending champion Roger Federer, who beat No. 19 Tomas Berdych at Rod Laver Arena to reach the semi-finals.

The Swiss world number two player put away his Czech Republic opponent 7-6(1) 6-3 6-4 victory over for the ninth time running to reach his 14th semi-final at the Australian Open.

Federer, who got off to a slow start and spent some time arguing with an umpire, refocused to put it together as he continues to dominate his opponents at Melbourne Park.

“I had to get a bit lucky, a bit angry, a bit frustrated, a bit antsy,” Federer said. “I’m really happy I got out of that first set. That ended up being the key to the match.”

The 36-year-old and five-time Australian Open champion, will take on debutant Hyeon Chung for a place in the final.

“I’m very excited to play Chung, I thought he played an incredible match against Novak (Djokovic),” Federer said.

“To beat him here is one of the tough things to do in our sport, I believe. I know that Novak maybe wasn’t at 110 percent, but he was all right. To close it out, that was mighty impressive.

“I think it’s an interesting match for me. I’ll definitely have to look into how I need to play against him because he has some great qualities, especially defensively, like Novak has.

“Right now I couldn’t tell you how I need to play him. One thing I know is I’m going to be playing aggressive. I don’t know how I’m going to do that exactly yet.”

Chung advanced to last four of the Australian Open after ending the run of American 97th-ranked Tennys Sandgren 6-4 7-6(5) 6-3 in two hours and 28 minutes on Rod Laver Arena.

The 21-year-old, with the win, became the first South Korean to reach the semi-finals of a grand slam.

“I think all the people is watching Australian Open now because we make history in Korea,” Chung said.

He also admits that his progression at the 2018 Australian Open will not allow him to travel unnoticed back home.

“I think sure, yeah. Getting better and better all the time now.”

He added: “I make the semis, I beat the likes of Sascha, Novak, and other good players.

“I never played in the second week in a grand slam, so I’m really surprised.”

Latest 2018 Australian Open Men’s Singles Results Day 8: Jan. 22

By:DWAYNE SIMPSON Published on: January 22, 2018 1:51 pm Leave a Comment

MELBOURNE, Sporting Alert – Latest 2018 Australian Open Men’s Singles results on Day 8 at Melbourne Park on Monday, Jan. 22, as a former champion and world number one was shocked.

The highlighted result on the day came at the Rod Laver Arena showcourt where six-times champion Novak Djokovic was stunned by South Korean Chung Hyeon in the fourth round.

Djokovic, the No. 14 seed was unable to match the relentless effort of Chung, who kept the very daze looking Serbian grounded for the entire contest to secure a remarkable 7-6(4) 7-5 7-6(3) victory.

The fourth round victory also saw the 21-year-old, the Next Gen ATP Finals winner, becoming the first South Korean to ever reach the quarter-finals of a grand slam.

Djokovic entered the Australian Open with an elbow problem he was hoping to heal as time passes.

However, it was evident the former world No. 1 had not recovered as much as he wants as he occasionally grimaced and flex the area during the contest and Chung clearly took full advantage.

He was also forced to take a medical time out to treat the elbow at the second set.

Defending champion Roger Federer had no problem progressing to the last eight of the Australian Open, following a 6-4 7-6(3) 6-2 victory over Hungarian Marton Fucsovics.

The Swiss world No. 2 was advancing to the last eight for the 14th time and has never lost a quarter-final at Melbourne Park, according to Reuters stats and information.

Federer will take on Czech 19th-seed Tomas Berdych in the next round.

Berdych eased into the last eight for the seventh time in eight years when he beat Italian Fabio Fognini 6-1 6-4 6-4 in his fourth round match.

Another surprising result in the fourth round of the 2018 Australian Open came at Hisense Arena where Tennys American Sandgren continued his impressive march towards winning a maiden grand slam.

The world No. 97 knocked out yet another top 10 seeded player on Monday after beating No. 5 Austrian Thiem 6-2 4-6 7-6(4) 6-7(7) 6-3 to proceed to the quarter-finals of a grand slam for the first time.

Sandgren conquered ninth seed Stan Wawrinka in the second round and the 26-year-old will take on Chung next.

“I don’t know, I’m in disbelief, I don’t know if this is a dream or not,” said an amazed-looking Sandgren. “It’s pretty cool. He played some really, really great tennis.

“I knew I had to take my chances. I knew from the back he could out-strike me, so I knew I had to be aggressive. Thankfully it worked out in the end.

“It’s my first main draw, and now I am in the quarter-finals,” Sandgren added.

Djokovic was playing his first match since retiring hurt at Wimbledon last year.

“A month ago I didn’t know if I was going to come to Australia or not because the elbow was still not prepared for this level of competition,” Djokovic said in his on-court interview.

He added afterward: “It’s just great to be back on a tennis court. There’s no better place to start playing after six months of injuries than here in Australia.

“It’s been a long time for me without an official match.

“I’ve never faced this particular situation in my career. I think I was absent for one month maximum ever since I started playing professional tennis, so I never missed a Grand Slam. It was different. I don’t want to say it was bad; it was just different.

“An injury is something that no athlete wants to have, but at the end of the day I had time to reflect on my life, my game, spend time with the family. I had that, but I’m really glad to be back.”

Meanwhile, No. 2 and defending champion Federer opened his Australian Open 2018 title defense on Tuesday night with a 6-3 6-4 6-3 victory over Aljaz Bedene at Rod Laver Arena.

UPDATED: Wimbledon 2016 Men’s Semi-Finals Results

By:Brittney Berreth | Staff Writer Published on: July 8, 2016 12:01 pm Leave a Comment

LONDON, Sporting Alert – Semi-final results from men’s singles at Wimbledon 2016 on Day 12, Friday, July 8.

In the first semi-finals, No. 3 Roger Federer was beaten 6-3 6-7(3) 4-6 7-5 6-3 by No. 6 Milos Raonic in a battling contest on Centre Court.

In the day’s second semi-final on the same court, British number one and tournament second seed Andy Murray defeated Tomas Berdych in straight sets to punch his ticket to final as well.

FIRST SEMIS IN FIVE

Friday’s five-set defeat was Federer’s first loss in 11 trips in Wimbledon semi-finals, as he was unable to outlast the Canadian in the closing sets.

Raonic took the first set, but the Switzerland veteran rallied to take a 2-1 lead heading into a decisive fifth.

However, the seven-time champion was unable to see off the match – losing the last two sets, including the fourth, where Raonic battled back to clinch a 7-5 win.

The defeat ended Federer’s quest to win an eighth Wimbledon title.

“It’s my dream to win an 8th title here. But it’s not the only reason I play tennis,” said Federer.

Federer, who was playing in his 18th championships, last won the Wimbledon title in 2012. He was runner-up in 2014 and 2015.

Meanwhile, Murray, the 2013 champion beat Czech 10th seed Tomas Berdych in straight sets to reach the final and he will start as the favourite.

Murray, who became the tournament favourite the moment defending champion and world number one Novak Djokovic was beaten by Sam Querrey in the early rounds, secured a 6-3 6-3 6-3 victory on Friday to reach his third Wimbledon final.

Wimbledon 2016 final will be on Sunday.

Wimbledon 2016 Men’s Semi-final Order of Play: Day 12

By:Brittney Berreth | Staff Writer Published on: July 8, 2016 6:47 am Leave a Comment

LONDON, Sporting Alert – The semi-finals of the men’s singles at Wimbledon 2016 will take place on Day 12 on Friday.

Live streaming will be on ESPN3/WatchESPN and ESPN | Live online streaming highlights at www.wimbledon.com

The four men who will be in action – hunting two places – are Andy Murray, Roger Federer, Milos Raonic and Tomas Berdych.

Taking the court first on Centre Court is Canada’s No. 6 seed Milos Raonic, who will face No. 3 seed Roger Federer of Switzerland, starting at 8:00 am ET.

The seven-times champion Federer enters these semi-finals full of confidence after shockingly surviving an exit in the quarter-finals.

Federer recovered from being two sets down to beat Croatian sixth-seed Marin Cilic to reach his 11th Wimbledon semi-final.

“When you’re down two sets to love, 3-3, 0-40, it’s a moment when it’s not in your control anymore,” the 34-year-old said after overcoming the huge deficit on Wednesday.

“But I fought, I tried, I believed. At the end I got it done.”

The Swiss veteran will take on the six seeded Raonic, who ended the surprising run of American No. 28 seed Sam Querrey 6-4 7-5 5-7 6-4 in his quarter-finals.

The coach of the Canadian, John McEnroe, was left stunned by the way Federer was able to pull off the comeback victory in his quarter-final match.

“I cannot believe Roger Federer won that match. Unbelievable tennis. How did he get out of that?

“You’ve got to love the courage that he’s able to find a way to do that, that’s a killer loss.”

Meanwhile, in the day’s second semi-final match, No. 2 Andy Murray will take on Tomas Berdych, the 10th seed at Wimbledon 2016.

Great Britain number one Murray battled out a five-set thriller against Frenchman No. 12 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in the quarter-finals to reach the semi-finals on Wednesday night.

His competitor, Czech Republic’s Berdych, beat Frenchman Lucas Pouille to book his second Wimbledon semi-final and he could be a handful for Murray in their last four battle.

Federer Comeback: Wimbledon 2016 Quarterfinals Results Day 10

By:Brittney Berreth | Staff Writer Published on: July 6, 2016 12:54 pm Leave a Comment

LONDON, Sporting Alert – Results from men’s singles quarterfinal matches on Day 10 at Wimbledon 2016, Wednesday July 6.

Much of the highlight was surrounded around Roger Federer, who pulled off a remarkable comeback to book his place into the last four.

Federer started slowly and found himself trailing by two sets to No. 9 Marin Cilic of Croatia on Centre Court.

However, the No. 3 seeded seven-time Wimbledon champion rallied from the massive deficit, including fighting off three match points to get the better of Cilic, 6-7(4) 4-6 6-3 7-6(9) 6-3, in five sets and earned his semi-final spot.

Federer will next face Canada’s No. 6 seed Milos Raonic, who ended the surprising run of American No. 28 seed Sam Querrey, with a 6-4 7-5 5-7 6-4 result.

Unlike Federer, Raonic got off to brisk start – winning the opening two sets before wrapping things up in the fourth.

Querrey, who earlier in the tournament defeated No. 1 Novak Djokovic, won the third second to cut the deficit to 2-1.

However, Raonic went on to finish off the contest in the fourth set and setup a battle with Federer.

“I thought Milos played great today. I don’t think I played poorly at all,” said Querrey. “I knew he had a big serve, obviously, but I was really impressed with his net game.

“He really didn’t miss a volley today. He kept coming forward, kept the pressure on me, and I felt it.

“Kudos to him for playing a very good, clean match.”

No. 2 Andy Murray also advanced to semifinal at Wimbledon, following a hard fought 7-6(10) 6-1 3-6 4-6 6-1 win over France’s No. 12 seed 12 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga.

Murray shot to a 2-0 lead in the match, but the Frenchman stormed back to win the next two sets to even things up at 2-2.

Murray then cruised to a 6-1 win in the fifth set to advance into the semis.

Also on Wednesday, the tenth-seeded Tomas Berdych of the Czech Republic beat No. 32 Lucas Pouille of France 7-6(4) 6-3 6-2 in his quarterfinal.

Berdych and Murray will meet in one of two semifinal matches.

Order of Play For Men’s Quarter-final Singles At Wimbledon 2016

By:Brittney Berreth | Staff Writer Published on: July 6, 2016 6:57 am Leave a Comment

LONDON, Sporting Alert – The order of play on Day 10 for the men’s singles quarter-final matches at Wimbledon 2016 on Wednesday, July 6.

As it was on the women’s side, the quarter-finals in the men’s singles will be played on the show courts – Centre Court and Court One, with the first match starting at 8:00 am ET.

Live streaming of each game will be on ESPN3.com and WatchESPN, with ESPN and ESPN2 also broadcasting the games live on television.

In the opener on Centre Court, No. 3 seed Roger Federer of Switzerland will lineup against Croatia’s No. 9 seed Marin Cilic.

Seven-time champion Federer booked his place in the quarter-finals after beating Steve Johnson of USA 6-2 6-3 7-5 in his fourth round match.

Marin Cilic advanced to the last eight after No. 5 seed Kei Nishikori of Japan was forced to retire, with the Croatian leading the match 6-1 5-1.

Cilic was a quarter-finalist in 2014 and 2015 as well.

The other game on Centre Court on Wednesday will see No. 12 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga of France taking on No. 2 Andy Murray of Great Britain.

With Serbia’s Novak Djokovic already out of the tournament, Murray is now being considered as the favourite and the 29-year-old is ok with the extra pressure.

“I haven’t noticed any real difference to be honest,” he said. “I’ve won Grand Slams before. I think for guys that haven’t that are still in the draw, they’re looking at it and seeing an opportunity for themselves.

“I deal with my own expectation. I expect to play my best tennis at these events and put a large amount of pressure on myself to do so, which I don’t think people always appreciate.

He added: “What the bookies say is completely irrelevant.

“Since I’ve been playing Wimbledon the last 10 years, I’d probably say seven or eight of those years, the expectation has been extremely high and the pressure’s been unbelievably high.

“That’s exactly the same this year regardless of who’s in the draw or not and it will be the same until I’m done playing tennis.”

Murray won Wimbledon in 2013.

On Court One, No. 6 Milos Raonic of Canada will play No. 28 Sam Querrey of USA, the man who took out world number one and defending champion Djokovic.

After his victory over Frenchman Nicolas Mahut in the fourt round to advance to his first grand slam quarter-final, Querrey said: “If I didn’t win, there would have been a lot of: Wow, it was kind of a fluky match against Novak because you didn’t back it up.

” …I definitely knew if I lost, it would have been: Hey, you beat Novak, but obviously that was just like one special moment.”

Wimbledon 2016 Order of Play on Day 5

By:Brittney Berreth | Staff Writer Published on: July 1, 2016 8:14 am Leave a Comment

WIMBLEDON, Sporting Alert – Top seeds Serena Williams and Novak Djokovic both return to the court on Day Five at Wimbledon 2016 and following is the order of play for Friday’s action.

Live streaming is available in the U.S. on ESPN 3, WatchESPN and ESPN networks, while www.wimbledon.com has live video streaming and updates as well.

On the women’s side on Friday, top ranked Serena Williams will take on fellow American Christina McHale in her second contest on Centre Court, with three games schedule for that section for today.

However, it’s another rain delay on Day Five, so roof has to come out at Centre Court, which means Williams and the others listed to play in that area will continue to play, knowing that they are now sheltered from the rain.

At the time of this update, I can tell you that we had a two hour delay, with play on the outside courts suspended.

Officials are hoping to get those under way at the same time as the matches scheduled to go off at Centre, which mean’s 8:00 am ET or some where in that area should see the start of action.

Back on the schedule for Friday, when play does get going on Day five at Wimbledon 2016, No. 4 seed Stan Wawrinka of Switzerland will be in action first on Centre Court when he takes on Juan Martin Del Potro of Argentina in men’s second round singles.

No. 3 Roger Federer will go in search of a round round place when the star from Switzerland battles with Dan Evans of Great Britain in his third round contest.

Serena Williams’ sister and No. 8 Venus Williams will also be in action on Day Five with a quick turnaround clash against Russia’s Darya Kasatkina in the third round on Court One, while world No. 1 men’s player and defending champion Djokovic of Serbia seeks a place in the fourth round when he matchup against American Sam Querrey.

Elsewhere on Friday, it also a quick turnaround for No. 5 Kei Nishikori of Japan who will face Andrey Kuznetsov (Russia) in men’s third round singles action, while No. 15 Nick Kyrgios (Australia), No. 6 Milos Raonic (Canada) and No. 11 David Goffin (Belgium) will also play on the men’s side.

No. 5 Simona Halep (Romania) goes up against 26 Kiki Bertens (Netherlands), No. 10 Petra Kvitova (Czech Rep) and Angelique Kerber of Germany.

Some 32 singles games are scheduled to be completed on Friday.
