World No. 8 Petra Kvitova will face the challenge of Anne Keothavong in the second round of Wimbledon 2011You can watch and bet on the action from Wimbledon at bet365Petra Kvitova stormed to a 6-2, 6-2 victory over Alexa Glatch in her Wimbledon opener this year, showing plenty of the form that took her all the way to last year’s semi-finals. The young Czech is worth keeping an eye on at the moment, as her form this season strongly suggests that another similar achievement could well be on the way.
Kvitova has 3 WTA titles to her name already this year, and the future is looking bright for her. She will currently be focusing on her next challenge, a second round fixture here at the All-England Club against world No. 111 Anne Keothavong. Whilst Keothavong wouldn’t usually be considered a major threat to Kvitova, she might just produce an inspired performance in front of the home crowd.
Kvitova currently has a 2-0 head to head record against Keothavong, following a match in Poitiers last season, and a meeting in Prague earlier this year. Kvitova saw out both contests in straight sets, though Keothavong was by no means outclassed in either matchup. If Keothavong can up her game on Wednesday, this will be a fascinating showdown.
