Finał Wimbledonu 2012.



Niewątpliwie największy, jak dotychczas, sukces Agnieszki, która dzielnie walczyła przez 2 tygodnie Mistrzostw przy Church Road. Isia wybornie reprezentowała nasz kraj, znacząco podnosząc rangę polskiego tenisa na arenie międzynarodowej. Rozsławiła Polskę, podobnie jak czyniła to przed kamerami Igrzysk, które odbyły się 3 tygodnie później.

Zastanawiam się, czy nie upamiętnić w tym temacie jej wypowiedzi na tematy "okołotenisowe".

Musisz! No bo jak to tak bez? Kto to widział?

[DUN I LOVE]

Nie powinniśmy świadomie szkodzić reputacji Isi.

[Advantage]

Ale mi chodzi o artykuły i wypowiedzi przychylne Agnieszce. Nie można plamić jej wizerunku.

[DUN I LOVE]

To jest mój kolejny plan - tyle artykułów o niej piszą - lwia część musi się pojawić tutaj.

Jak wygra turniej wielkoszlemowy, to temat pęknie w szwach. A już na AO powinna to zrobić.

"Cały świat już odkrył geniusz Agnieszki"

Spoiler:

Radwańska przegrała finał Wimbledonu

"Cały świat już odkrył geniusz Agnieszki"
Wojciech Fibak tuż po zakończeniu finału tegorocznego Wimbledonu chwalił występ polskiej tenistki. - Rewelacyjny mecz Agnieszki Radwańskiej - mówił reporterowi TVN24 zaraz po opuszczeniu trybun kortu centralnego w Londynie. Agnieszka Radwańska przegrała z Amerykanką Sereną Williams w finale turniej wielkoszlemowego w Londynie.

- To był rewelacyjny mecz Agnieszki Radwańskiej, (...) Serena Williams pokazała wielką klasę, ale była zmuszona do największego wysiłku - mówił po wyjściu z kortu centralnego Wojciech Fibak. Zdaniem tenisisty dziś rozegrany mecz pokazała, jak wielki talent posiada Radwańska. - Teraz cały świat już odkrył ten geniusz Agnieszki, ten talent tenisowy niezwykły. - mówił Fibak w rozmowie z reporterem TVN24.

W rozmowiz z PAP Fibak powiedział z kolei, że jego zdaniem nasza tenisistka udowodniła wszystkim, że bezpodstawnie skreślano ją przed finałem Wimbledonu. - Wszyscy ci niedowiarkowie, wszystkie brytyjskie i amerykańskie gazety, czy nawet telewizje przekreśliły Agnieszkę jeszcze przed rozpoczęciem finału. Nie wierzyli, że ona swoją subtelną techniczną grą jest w stanie przeciwstawić się wielkiej Williams i jej serwisowi. A tu okazało się, że chwilami Serena musiała dać z siebie tysiąc procent, żeby wygrywać piłki z Agnieszką - powiedział najlepszy w historii polski tenisista.

Fibak dodał, że klasę naszej tenisistki doceniła jej pogromczyni. - Serena Williams zaprosiła publiczność, aby zgotowała dodatkową owację dla Agnieszki - powiedział Fibak. Pytany, czy "Isia" mogła dziś wygrać, przyznał, że można mieć niedosyt.

- Na początku trzeciego seta czułem, chyba wszyscy w tym naszym boksie czuliśmy, że Agnieszka może ten mecz wygrać. Wydawało mi się, że wyjdzie w nim jednak większe zmęczenie u Sereny po grze w deblu. Opanowała nerwowość i nagle serwis jej wrócił, szczególne znaczenie miał chyba ten gem na 2:2, wygrany czterema asami (najkrótszy gem w tegorocznym turnieju, trwał 49 sekund - przyp. PAP). Ewidentnie wtedy poczuła znów swoją siłę i złapała wiatr z w żagle - powiedział Fibak.

"Mało kto by wygrał z Agnieszką"
Jego zdaniem "Isia" zagrała dzisiaj mecz na najwyższym poziomie. - Dzisiaj mało kto by wygrał z Agnieszką na tym korcie trawiastym, pamiętajmy, najtrudniejszym korcie na świecie. Agnieszka grała świetnie i w obronie, i w ataku, nisko na nogach, bardzo wcześnie uderzała piłki. Właściwie jeśli Serena nie zdobywała punktu samym serwisem czy returnem, to zaczynały się problemy i długie wymiany, w których lepsza była Polka. Dopiero w końcówce szala przy dłuższych piłkach przechyliła się na korzyść rywalki - ocenił Fibak.

Awans w klasyfikacji
Agnieszka Radwańska przegrała z Amerykanką Sereną Williams 1:6, 7:5, 2:6 w finale turniej wielkoszlemowego na kortach w Wimbledonie. Pierwsze pięć gemów finału należało do Williams, ale gdy Polka zdobyła serwis na 1:5, otrzymała długą owację. Publiczność wspierała ją gorąco, gdy przegrywała 1:3 w drugiej partii, a później z coraz większym podziwem, gdy odrobiła straty i przełamała serwis Amerykanki na 7:5. Awans do finału londyńskiej imprezy dał Radwańskiej awans na drugie miejsce w rankingu WTA Tour, najwyższe w karierze. Wyprzedziła Rosjankę Marię Szarapową, podobnie jak Białorusinka Wiktoria Azarenka, która po miesiącu wróci na prowadzenie w tej klasyfikacji.

AO - konferencja po meczu 2 rundy:

Spoiler:

Q. What do you think was so challenging about that second set compared to the first?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: Well, uhm, I started really well today. I think then she tried to play more aggressive in the second set and I think I did step backwards unfortunately. Suddenly I was break down.

But just very happy that I could manage to win that second set and finish the match.



Q. How about your right shoulder? Usually you don't tape things in the beginning of the season. This season there is some taping on your right shoulder.
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: Actually I had a lot of good and long matches in Perth, in Hopman Cup.

After it was a little bit worse, but actually it's pretty good now. Not going to complain about that.



Q. The weather obviously is a huge topic here. You played indoors today. Do you have a take on how hot it is before it becomes impossible to play?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: Yes, today for sure I was lucky to play indoor. I saw a lot of matches in the morning that they were not very lucky than me.

Today was really, really hard. Even indoor was ridiculous. Well, of course, everybody talk about it. So we kind of trying to prepare for that weather and doing everything we can to survive those matches, but it's tough.



Q. Given that, can you get lucky in the draw to play indoors, find yourself in the second week, and the bad conditions haven't hit you in a way?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: Well, for sure. Today I was lucky. But, for example, in the first round it was the same weather and I went off court at 2:30 and it was outdoor. I had to play two and a half hour in 42 degrees.

Sometimes you lucky, sometimes you not. Well, you just have to fight with yourself and then with your opponent. The weather push you to do it.



Q. What has the conversation been in the locker room? What's the mood right now with respect to the heat?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: Well, I mean, I think it's everybody saying that sometimes it's even too hot. Some of the girls can't even talk after the match or practice. You can see who played a match, you know. Just so red.

I think, you know, the ice bath, it's the thing everybody does this week every day.

So, uhm, well, it's definitely tough for everyone.



Q. Must be good to hear it's supposed to be cooler this weekend and next.
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: Yes. Well, I think tomorrow is the last day. I'm lucky that I'm not playing tomorrow. So just soft practice indoor and that's it for me.

I think on Saturday it will be normal, so that's good.



Q. Physically how are you doing with the shoulder strapping and everything? Is it the same shoulder that ends up bothering you towards the end of the year every year?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: Yes. Well, but now it's pretty good actually. It's really doing better. So, uhm, it's okay. Hope it will be like that.

AO - konferencja po meczu 3 rundy:

Spoiler:

Q. That game was similar to the final in Korea Open last year. Would you explain the moment. How do you feel about the play of today?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: Yes, well, definitely a similar match than the final in Seoul last year, but I think that was even 45 minutes longer match.

Well, but, was very happy that I could come back in the second set. Of course the first set was pretty close, and I think I just slowed down a little bit in the end of the first set.

So, well, but I'm thinking, you know, I still was playing my game in the second set and was a little bit easier.



Q. It's looking like there is a chance you could play Caroline. Obviously you guys know each other well. Is that tricky to play a friend?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: Well, we know each other I think 15 years from now, so pretty long time. We played everything together, tournaments under 10, 12, till now. Now we are both top 10. We played of course many times against each other.

So of course this is the thing that sooner or later you're gonna play against each other. Of course we know that. So, you know, we are okay to play, to be on court opponents, and after the match we are still friends.



Q. And you know everything there is to know about the other's game?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: I think so. We practice also a lot together on the tournaments, so, yeah, we pretty much know each other.



Q. The junior tournament is starting today. Does that bring back good memories from your junior years?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: Well, I think so, especially that when I was in the juniors of course I was watching a lot of tennis on TV and most of those players are still playing now.

So it was nice feeling seeing the same players on TV and then suddenly in the same tournaments, and sometimes also like opponent on the opposite side of the net.

So it was a huge step. But I always have good memories from the juniors times, yes.



Q. The junior players today, do you know some of them? Do you give them maybe advice or...
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: Well, I don't really know them, to be honest. I think we just can see them just in the Grand Slam, so just four times a year.

But otherwise just see some really young players coming up with wildcards. Then you see them more, but otherwise it's hard.

AO - konferencja po meczu 4 rundy:

Spoiler:

Q. How did you rate her game? Another young player coming up on the tour. What did you see that was promising?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: Well, I play her two years ago in Miami, so actually there I beat her easy. I mean, with easy score, but I knew from there that's she's going to be very tough opponent in the future and for sure we going to see her more often on the center court.

And also I saw a bit of her last match against Caro. Well, she played great tennis here. I really was prepared for that. I'm happy that I played my 100% today.



Q. Is it weird having a match that the first four games lasted 37 minutes?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: Yeah, well, I just saw that as well myself. I was thinking that I'm going to spend on court for sure three hours today.

But suddenly I think, you know, the one break in the first set was the key, especially in the first set. Really was playing good from the first point to the last one, really aggressive.

I think there was a little bot more mistakes from her. I think I was really focused on my serve, as well.

So, you know, happy to close that match in two sets.



Q. Did you talk to Caroline at all about how to play her?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: No, I didn't see Caroline afterwards. But I played her before, saw her matches, so I knew.



Q. You have Azarenka up next. What do you have to do to beat her?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: I think I have to even play better than today to beat her. Obviously, she's playing great tennis, especially here, defending champion. I think I have nothing to lose. Hopefully I can really play my best tennis and will fight.



Q. What have you been most pleased about with your game over the course of the first four rounds?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: Well, I think I was really playing every match better tennis. I think I was a little bit struggling in my first match, and also with the heat.

I think last two matches were pretty good. Especially today. I can't really complain about anything. So, yeah, good.



Q. Do you think today was the best match of the four you played?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: Yeah, I think so. Everything was working. I was playing aggressive. Serving good. Moving well.

So, yeah.



Q. With Serena and Sharapova out, does that change the mood at all? Did you watch them?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: Yes, whenever I'm at the hotel I'm watching tennis. I saw a bit of the matches.

Well, I think this is sport, tennis. Especially a Grand Slam you really have to be prepared for a lot of good matches.

Sometimes, especially here, it was really hard conditions, so sometimes one match costs you a lot of power.

Well, I think it's not really that much surprising, of course. It always happen that not all the seeded players are in the quarters or the semis.

Anyway I'm playing Vika, so I don't really have an easy draw.



Q. Had success earlier; in the last few she's gotten you. Do you think something has changed in this matchup?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: Well, I think, uhm, you know, what I have to do for sure is playing good, just not really think about anything else, and just trying to play my game.

Like I'm saying, I'm really having nothing to lose now. She's defending champion. She won her twice. Well, just going to go on court and try.



Q. What is the toughest thing about her as a player?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: Uhm, I think she's very consistent. She's really playing on the high level all the time. She's not really an up and down player. Always playing on a good level.

You really have to win the match by yourself because she's not giving you any free points.



Q. After all the coffees you had, the post match adrenaline, are you going to be able to sleep?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: For me, no chance for me to fall asleep until four hours after the match. Now some treatment, massage. I think I will just watch some TV series and try to fall asleep.



Q. No boring book?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: Boring book is good to fall asleep. But I think after the match, it's not going to work. I tried.



Q. What TV shows are you watching?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: I'm watching Revenge.



Q. Do you know who shot her?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: No. Don't tell me (smiling).



Q. Did you and Vika ever talk after the match in Doha or did you just leave what happened in Doha behind you?
AGNIESZKA RADWANSKA: I think we just leaved the thing behind us. I think was long time ago. We played so many times after that, as well.
