Kerber is not a great grass court player. She's good at the most

Before Wimbledon last year she won a total of 1 grass court match in her career. She's terrible on the surface mostly because img he low bouncing balls she doesn't get down for, her poor movement being exposed on the fast grass, and her lack of variety for the grass

She may not be terrible anymore but she's not good. Therefore she won't be the next dominant player if she can only dominate on one surface, clay.

Mugu just isn't a grass chanteuse, the surface suits her game tho. She gives athletic Davenport teas.

I reckon it'll be a Serena/Novak Wimbledon again.

Yeah it suits it well which is why I'm surprised she was such a local on the surface before.

Muguruza is certainly not on Venus, Radwanska, Kvitova, Vika in terms of grass prowess, but she is certainly capable.

Not you throwing in Vika

people on TF comparing Maria to Armstrong and Pistorius

Not Guest on grass. Spoken like a true Federer fan.

Two tight Wimbledon SFs against eventual champions, very close and high-quality QF against Serena (eventual champion), another QF against Serena in 2009, singles bronze and mixed doubles gold @ London Olympics.

How isn't she great? 2013 (peak) she was forced to withdraw due to injury, 2014 she was coming back from injury, now this year she's also withdrawing.

"Spoken like a true Federer fan." Yep, the man with 7 Wimbledon titles!

How many grass titles does she have?

I miss Serena slaying Maria's ass.

Sis, what grass titles are there to be won aside from Wimbledon and a couple of MMs

For someone who is supposedly GREAT on grass, to have 0 titles automatically disqualifies you

Even Aga has a grass court title. Hell, Keys has 2.

She was never the same after this. Brilliants wins followed by absences and injuries. I don't recall her getting injured so much before this happened If not the injuries, she could have slayed the whole field sans Serena (still would win more matches)

Win % on Grass ( before 2016 grass season)
#2 Venus: 82,7%
#5 Petra: 76,0%
#9 Vika: 71,7%
#10 Aga: 71,6%
#12 Kerber: 68,4%
#18 Garbine: 61,9%

Still a long way to go!

Karolína in semis, Aga out

I guess Aga isn't going to win with that draw.

So many good R1 matches at Wimbledon
