Wimbledon Preview: Jelena Jankovic vs. Agnieszka Radwanska

Jul 06, 2015 06:44 AM EDT

Petra Kvitova didn't know what hit her. The Czech was up a set and 4-3 in the second when Jelena Jankovic broke her serve to level the match. The relentless Serb then played aggressively, taking the ball early and surprising Kvitova with deep returns that brought her once to the top of the rankings. After two hours and a Kvitova forehand hitting the net, Jankovic fell to the ground and raised her hands to the cheers of the Centre Court crowd.

It's the second most anticipated match on Centre Court, next to the battle of the Williams sisters. It may be less dramatic - no familial ties, no "grand slam" goals - but if you're up against the tallest and oldest player in the tournament, expect bombs to explode on the service line. This is Andy Murray's fate as he starts his second week at Wimbledon. He will be facing Ivo Karlovic, the 6"11 Croatian who wears a size 16 shoe and is known to drop nuclears on the T.

John Isner's CV has yet to include a grand slam win. Expectations are high on the 30-year-old being the only American in the top 20. He is, after all, "the hope" since the retirement of Andy Roddick, Andre Agassi and the legend Pete Sampras. But Isner hasn't even reached the semifinals of a grand slam and the only notable performance he exhibited was at the US Open in 2011 where he lost in the quarterfinals. It wouldn't be fair to compare Isner to the retired greats, of course, but the good news is, Isner may be on his way to another record-breaking feat. And we're not talking about a grand slam win here.

It's unusual for Rafael Nadal to be slam-less. Since 2005, the Spaniard has at least won one singles grand slam crown, but it's a different story so far this year as he heads into Wimbledon as the 10th seed. Despite his grass court triumph in Stuttgart, speculations of an early Wimbledon exit have been looming. Nadal, however, silenced his critics by defeating Thomaz Bellucci in straight sets to advance to the second round.
