The first quarter final round in
Wimbledon 2012 for Women’s Singles category was over yesterday and it has come
up with the four outstanding semifinalists. Now, today on July 4, four quarter
final matches in Men’s Singles category will be played where top seeded Novak
Djokovic and Florian Mayer will battle to fix a spot in the next round. In the
last match, Djokovic dumped his unseeded opponent, Viktor Troicki quite easily
to get in to the final eight in a straight set victory in 6-3, 6-1, 6-3. In the
other match of the fourth round, 31st seeded Mayer knocked down
eighteenth seeded Richard Gasquet fabulously in 6-3, 6-1, 3-6, 6-2 set to set a
match against World No 1 Djokovic in the quarter final.
Australian Open 2012 champion and
last year’s Wimbledon Champion Djokovic missed the last Grand Slam and ended
the French Open as a finalist. So after defeating his countryman Troicki, this
Serbian has inched one step towards another Grand Slam. He is now just two
steps away from the final to be held on this coming Sunday. In this remaining
way, he has to face this German in the quarter final and then, most likely the
Swiss tennis hero, Federer in the semi final. Of course if the Swiss succeeds
in outsmarting his Russian opponent in the quarter final. Djokovic and Mayer had only confronted once
in 2011 in Dubai and in that meeting, Djokovic won in 7-5, 6-1 score line.
Since the last two years, Djokovic has been ruling in almost every match with
his impressive serves. He is the most deserving contender for this championship
title along with Federer.
Compared to Djokovic, Germany’s
Florian Mayer is an underdog and it is almost unexpected to see him getting
qualified for the last eight of this major tournament. However, the way he has
been dictating in this tournament is absolutely superb to see, especially in
the last match, where he upset Gasquet to make his way in the quarter final. In
2004, at a tender age of 20, Mayer made his debut entry in the Wimbledon
quarter final and that time he was in superb form to reflect a glorious career
ahead. But as time progressed, he proved himself as an underachiever and this
is the second time he is in Wimbledon quarter final. In this tournament, he has
improved his performance level and even though Djokovic is far superior to him,
there is little chance for Mayer to upset Djokovic to turn the match in his
favor.
