Serena brushes aside Kimiko Date-Krumm
  • 5 years ago
MANILA, Philippines – In the women’s draw of Wimbledon, Serena Williams unleashed her full power to move effortlessly in the last 16 with a crushing win over Japanese veteran Kimiko Date-Krumm. Williams, despite being 11 years younger than her 42-year-old opponent, never allowed Date-Krumm to gain a foothold in the match. The Japanese was ruthlessly dispatched as Williams took the first set in 35 minutes. Williams, who is chasing a sixth Wimbledon title and 17th Grand Slam overall, will face Germany’s 23rd seed Sabine Lisicki in the fourth round. -- ANC, June 30, 2013
