WIMBLEDON 07 - Henmania
27/06/2007:
Henin reigned supreme in her first match on center court by defeating Vera
Dushevina 6-0 6-4. It was elegant cutting edge tennis from Justine with a nod
to Steffi Graf in deft unyielding finish. Justine's next challenger will be
Russian Elena Vesnina, who she played two weeks ago in the opening round at
Roland Garros.
Under grey skies, and slight wind Justine's immaculate tennis gave off a
purity of light all it's own on the dew lawn of center court. Henmania with
it's power, and flawless finesse was too much for Vera Dushevina, who won
Junior Wimbledon in 2002 defeating Maria Sharapova. The 6-0 first set
scoreline in 20 minutes left the audience with sympathy for Dushevina.
The Russian improved her tennis game in the second set to the sigh of relief
from the crowd, as Justine eased off the pressure with a few unforced error
gift points. The polite center court crowd became animated when Dushevina
requested for the novel Hawk-Eye line call challenge on a serve.
The score levelled at 4-4, but a tranquil Justine simply played sharper
grounstrokes to break then serve for the set. On the Belgian tennis queen's
second ace, and match point Dushevina showed a cheeky side. The Russian
requested for Hawk-Eye much to the amusement of the chair umpire, spectators
and Justine as she was walking forward to the sporting gesture of the net
handshake. The video replay showed the serve was in much to Justine's
delight. Game, set, match 6-0 6-4.
Final Score 6-0 6-4 in 60 minutes
