Defeated Collins calls Iga Swiatek a Backstabber:

Danielle Collins makes comment about Iga Swiatek after losing at Wimbledon and suggests they will never get along well

This frosty rivalry continues...

I don't like players taking shots at other players after losing to them. Do it before the match not after, otherwise shut up. Very disappointing behavior by Collins.

Shelton Into Quarters:

American Shelton reaches 1st Wimbledon quarter

American Ben Shelton, the No. 10 seed, reached the Wimbledon quarterfinals for the first time Monday with a 3-6, 6-1, 7-6 (1), 7-5 victory over Lorenzo Sonego -- one that also secured him the family bragging rights.

www.espn.com

He is a very dangerous player in this tournament. Has a big ferocious serve. He lost a tough match to Alcaraz in the French Open where he was serving 143 mph rockets. He will be much tougher to beat on this surface if his serves are being hit in with a high %. Former NCAA champion with the Florida Gators.

I would not want to play him.

Aniisimova Stuns Sabalenka:

American Anisimova stuns top-ranked Sabalenka

Amanda Anisimova upset No. 1-ranked Aryna Sabalenka 6-4, 4-6, 6-4 at Wimbledon on Thursday to reach the first Grand Slam final of her career.

www.espn.com

ESPN predicted this and Amanda is now 6-3 vs Sabalenka, which constitutes owning her. Anisimova is 5'11, 150 pounds, a big girl who resists the bullying of Sabalenka well.

Aryna Sabalenka vs. Amanda Anisimova | July 10, 12:35 PM ET

Very close in almost every stat, except on break points, which is where Sabalenka lost the match. She just did not perform well when her serve was threatened, and it cost her the match.
