Serena has played inspired tennis during the Wimbledon tournament. She dominated her first 5 opponents. She’s only had a couple of missteps along the way to the semifinals. She lost her first set 2-6 in Round 2 to Kaja Juvan. In her quarterfinals victory over Alison Riske, Serena lost the second set 4-6. Other than that, she’s played about as well as she could.
Although Serena looks strong heading into the semis, she could have some trouble knocking out Barbora Strykova. The 33-year-old Czech player has beaten 4 seeded players on her way to the Wimbledon semifinals: 32-Lesia Tsurenko in Round 1, 4-Kiki Bertens in the third round, 21-Elise Mertens in Round 4, and 19-Johanna Konta in the quarterfinals.
Strykova is playing the best tennis of her career. She also made the women’s doubles semifinals with playing partner Su-Wei Hsieh. Strykova has a real shot of pulling off the upset. She’s the pick over Serena in this Wimbledon Women’s Semifinal.
