Wimbledon– In the second group, Madison Keys Her nemesis is nose to nose online.
Try to close the gap Laura Sigemund,,,,, Keys see crafty German loop on top Broad green grass.
The exchange represents Siegmund’s 6-3, 6-3 keys on the keys in second place today.
She hits the head at the key point when the biggest woman, still standing in a singles draw, doesn’t drag the keys to the obscure area.
The 37-year-old Siegmund won 12 of 15 net points and won five of his first-time Wimbledon’s fourth round.
“Of course, you don’t feel happy when you beat a great player like Madison,” said Siegemund. “It’s not easy today – the conditions are sometimes windy and spinning, not the best mass, but in the end I kept my nerves.
“There will always be nerves. I think if you don’t have nerves at this moment, you’re probably dead.
“So you take a deep breath and just remember what your strategy is. Technically, I’m not stressed. I’m trying to remember that I’m just playing for myself. I don’t feel like I need to prove anything more.”
It turns out that this unstable seed is still on the unstable ground.
The key to the sixth seed is the sixth place to be dropped before the fourth round. She joined No. 2 seed Coco Gauff, third seed Jessica Pegula, fourth seed 2024 finalist Jasmine Paolini, fifth seed Zheng Qinwen and No. 9 seed Paula Badosa fell from the draw.
This leaves only Aryna Sabalenka, the world’s number one Aryna Sabalenka, the seventh seed Mirra Andreeva, the eighth seed Iga Swiatek and the 10th seed Emma Navarro, because the top ten seeds of loneliness are still standing.
On paper, the keys had a quarter-final collision course with Sabalenka, but Siegmund flipped the script and chopped the mighty Americans with slices and short, soft balls.
But today’s loss – twice winning Wimbledon doubles quarterfinals, they never surpassed the third round in six singles matches – could be sting keys for a while.
The Brave Key saved the match points in the 5-6 shocking second seed Iga Swiatek 5-7, 6-1, 7-6 (8) matches with a pulsating and crazy comeback victory, which brought her to her first Australian Open final. Keys then upgraded to the stunning Slugfest at Rod Laver Arena in an inspiring AO showdown match, two-time defending champion Arna Sabalenka 6-3, 2-6, 7-5.
On SW19, Keys admitted that she “didns a bullet” by defeating Elena-Gabriela Ruse 6-7, 7-5, 7-5 in the first round but never really found freedom against Siegemund.
The U.S. Open will recall Siegmund almost defeated Coco Gauff at the 2023 U.S. Open, before Gauff won 6-3, 2-6, 6-4.

Today, Siegemund haunts the key with repeated titration shots. The Germans screened six clean shot winners and sometimes used the combination of titrated shots for Bamboozle keys.
The quirky Siegmund also presents annoying psychological challenges. Siegmund plays two Yonex rackets (an acceptable racket), repeatedly screaming “Come on!” grinding on opponent’s service and prefers to run the serving clock right to the end.
When Siegmund was attacked by a time-violation before serving on the fourth match point, a fan screamed “Thank you! Thank you!” cheered the call from the chair referee.
You have to hand it over to 37-year-old Siegmund, though, to impose her style of play in two quarter-finals. These shots are sure to cause huge losses when Keys try to squeeze the drive to the point where they sometimes pull the trigger too early to end this. Key denied that three straight match points exploded with a big serve, maintaining 3-5 in the second set.
Fans burst out when the Keys opened up Love-30’s lead in the next game – regaining the serve. Siegmund then cut her sixth shooting championship 15-30. That curved fallen leaf bonding key freezes the key, giving the German a fourth game.
When Keys’ final reward skewed, Siegmund threw her blue racket aside and repeatedly jumped for joy.
