WIMBLEDON - Il programma del 3 Luglio: si giocano i quarti femminili. Serena trova la Kvitova, ostacolo russo per la Radwanska

La pioggia ha messo nei guai gli organizzatori del torneo di Wimbledon, in quanto molti ottavi di finale programmati nel “Big Monday” non sono stati conclusi, traformando il martedi londinese in un mix di ottavi e dei tradizionali quarti di finale femminili.
A scendere in campo per primi sul Centre Court saranno David Ferrer e Juan Martin Del Potro, il cui match non è neanche cominciato nella giornata di lunedi.

Chi invece è già passata ai quarti è Serena Williams, che ha avuto la meglio in tre set sulla sorprendente Yaroslava Shvedova, e si appresta ad affrontare la campionessa in carica di Wimbledon, Petra Kvitova: la loro sfida è ormai un classico in chiave Slam, in quanto i loro due precedenti, entrambi targati 2010, hanno avuto luogo a Melbourne e proprio a Wimbledon. Ricordiamo che in entrambi i casi è stata la statunitense a prevalere, e Petra non ha mai strappato neanche un set alla Williams.

A seguire derby tedesco tra Angelique Kerber e Sabine Lisicki, che ha estromesso dal torneo la numero uno del mondo, la russa Maria Sharapova. La Kerber conduce 4-0 negli scontri diretti, di cui due si sono svolti nel 2012 (Auckland e Doha), mentre l’unica partita sull’erba ha avuto luogo a ‘s- Hertogenbosch nel 2008.

Sul Campo 1, dopo la prosecuzione del match tra Murray e Cilic, fermo sul 7-5 3-1 per lo scozzese, sarà la volta della numero tre del mondo, Agnieszka Radwanska, contro Maria Kirilenko: il bilancio è 5-2 per la polacca, che ha vinto gli ultimi quattro incontri, compreso l’ultimo, giocato sul cemento di Miami nel 2011. Per trovare una vittoria della Kirilenko dobbiamo risalire fino al torneo di Mosca del 2009, quando la russa si impose con un doppio 6-3; ricordiamo inoltre che le due non si sono mai incrociate sull’erba.

A chiudere il programma dei quarti femminili ci penserà Victoria Azarenka, opposta a Tamira Paszek: Vika ha vinto entrambi i precedenti, e la partita di domani sarà la riedizione del quarto di finale giocato lo scorso anno proprio a Wimbledon (anche in questo caso la vittoria andò alla bielorussa con un facile 6-3 6-1).

Per quanto riguarda il torneo juniores, domani sarà la volta di Gianluigi Quinzi, impegnato contro Christian Garin (seconda partita sul Campo 4), e di Stefano Napolitano, fermato oggi sul 6-1 3-0 contro il francese Maxime Hamou (prima partita sul Campo 7). Gianluigi Quinzi sarà impegnato anche in doppio (con Filip Peliwo) contro i britannici Ashley/Crawford (quinto match sul Campo 10).
Tanta Italia anche sul Campo 15, dove giocheranno in rapida successione Pietro Licciardi contro Herkko Pollanen (seconda partita) e Matteo Donati contro Nikola Milojevic (terza partita). Licciardi/Donati saranno poi impegnati anche in doppio contro gli spagnoli Alcaraz Ivorra/Esteve Lobato (ultima partita sul Campo 17).

Infine, ancora da determinare il campo dove giocheranno Errani/Vinci, teste di serie numero due del seeding, contro le temibili sorelle Urszula e Agnieszka Radwanska, nella partita valida per l’accesso ai quarti di finale della competizione di doppio.
