LONDON—In Saturday’s Wimbledon final, Angelique Kerber will try to end Serena Williams’ bid for a 22nd Grand Slam for the second time this year.
At the Australian Open, Kerber stunned both herself and Williams to win her first Grand Slam, but playing on Centre Court will be different.
“I think it will be [a] completely new match because we are playing here on grass,” Kerber said. “It's a little bit different, the game style. But I will try to go out, being confident, [and] believe in myself that I can beat her.”
The two have never faced off on turf—though Williams leads their head to head 5-2—but belief shouldn’t be too hard to find since the German’s last match against Williams was a triumphant 6-4, 3-6, 6-4 win in Melbourne.
