Vera Zvonareva is set for a tricky third round encounter at Wimbledon on Friday against Tsvetana PironkovaYou can watch and bet on the action from Wimbledon at bet3652010 runner-up Vera Zvonareva fought off a second round revival from Elena Vesnina in round two to claim a 6-1, 7-6 victory, and remains on course for another successful run here. She remains a serious contender for the title, and there aren’t many players right now that can be said to have a better chance than her this time around at the All-England Club.
The world No. 3 is now set for a tough third round clash against 2010 semi-finalist Tsvetana Pironkova. Pironkova was beaten in the final four by Zvonareva last year, but only following a well contested three-setter (3-6, 6-3, 6-2). We might be in for another exciting matchup this time around, and Pironkova’s performance in her 6-1, 6-4 win over Petra Martic suggests that she’s back on song.
Pironkova has endured a poor start to the season this year, and her rankings points from Wimbledon 2010 are the cornerstone for her current ranking of No. 33 in the world. The Bulgarian will surely be ready to produce a spirited display, and this third round showdown could prove to be a real crowd-pleaser.
