The matchups for the quarter-finals of Wimbledon Champions look impressive, and the games will be more intense than ever. Every point matters and even the slightest wrong move can prove to be costly. Unfortunately, Mirra Andreeva lost a point after she allegedly expressed her frustration in the fourth round of Wimbledon. The umpire was strict and deducted points from her. Ultimately, Madison Keys won the final set, and Andreeva was out of the tournament. It is now Aryna Sabalenka who has to face Keys in the quarter-finals.

After her win against Ekaterina Alexandrova, the Belarusian was asked about her quarter-final match and what she should look out for in the American.

Talking about her serve, the Australian Open winner said, “So serving really well, playing pretty fast games. So, she is really a tough opponent to play against, and uh, I mean, it’s going to be a great battle, and I am really looking forward for this match.”
