Wimbledon 2015: Writers Awards – Biggest Upset

JAKE FLETCHER. 1. <p><strong>Petra Kvitova</strong> losing to <strong>Jelena Jankovic</strong> in 3rd round – Having moved through her first 2 matches for the loss of only 3 games, the defending champion looked ominous. When she assumed a set and 4-2 lead against Jankovic in the third round, she looked completely unplayable and the commentators were describing her form as the best they’d seen in the competition.</p> <p>Then, the unthinkable happened! From such a commanding position, where she was scarcely dropping a point on serve, her game fell apart as Jankovic loosened up and began to play more aggressively.</p> <p>It was as if the lack of recent competition had seriously affected her ability to fight as she was slowly but surely beaten 36 75 64. By the end, she was scarcely holding her serve as she seemed uncertain off the ground and fearful of coming to the net.</p>. Writer. Lob and Smash
