Scrappy Barty into third round, Medvedev through
July 2, 2021
LONDON: Ashleigh Barty’s bid to win the Wimbledon singles title on the 50th anniversary of fellow indigenous Australian Evonne Goolagong Cawley’s first victory stayed on course on Thursday.
However, Barty produced a far from perfect performance in her 6-4, 6-3 win over Russia’s Anna Blinkova as she progressed to a third round meeting with Czech Katerina Siniakova.
“She pushed me incredibly hard,” said Barty.
“A few points here and there it could have been a different story.”
Barty is seeded to meet this year’s French Open champion Barbora Krejcikova in the last 16.
