The key point of the game: the tie-break in the second round. After the lost set Belinda Bencic (WTA 56) stands back to the wall, the opponent Alison Riske (WTA 60) has no less than four match points. But Bencic shows morality and repels them all. With 12:10 (!) She finally sets the compensation of the game.
In the third set, the 21-year-old Flawilerin can then increase again, but gives the same service twice. However, she can deceive the American three times and eventually win the match after 2:24 hours.
Cilic Mocks Pella
The dream of winning the second Wimbledon Finals in a row broke out for Marin Cilic, the Croatian, sometimes the world number five and one of the favorites of the title, is embarrassing against Argentine Guido Pella (ATP 82) and loses in five sets.
Cilic caught up with a start of the match on Wednesday. He can win the first two sets 6: 3, 6: 1. At the score of 3: 4 from the Croatian point of view, the game must be interrupted because of rain and darkness.
Thursday, the winner of the US Open 2014 will not even play anymore. The third set, he must give 4: 6, put four to lose in a tie-break and in the fifth set, he beat 5-7.
Last year, the 29-year-old reached the final in London, defeated there – also because of a foot injury – Roger Federer in three sets with 3: 6, 1: 6 , 4: 6. And this year too, nothing comes with great significance for the Croats.
Nadal and Djokovic without problems
