Maria Sakkari continues Wimbledon onslaught with win over Tomova

Maria Sakkari had very few issues in her match against Tomova at Wimbledon beating her opponent in straight sets 6-4 6-3.

The Greek player said before the event that she was ready to win Wimbledon believing herself one of the best players in the world. It's hard to argue that she's anything but one of the best but winning the event seems unlikely considering her noted problems in finals. Still, round two doesn't hold the same amount of pressure and she was able to largely outplay her opponent from start to finish.

Both of them played rather well in this one but Sakkari was a tiny bit better. She was able to hold her serve despite not serving that well the entire match. The percentages were a little over 50 % in both sets and she can certainly do much better.
