"Great chance at Wimbledon" - says Navratilova on Serena Williams winning it

Martina Navratilova has stated that she believes Serena Williams has a great chance of winning Wimbledon in 2021.

The tennis legend was part of the broadcast for the Rome Masters and during that she spoke about Serena Williams and her recent struggles. On the loss in Rome she said:

“You need more match play. Serena had not played since the Australian Open. As you get older you need to pair your schedule down and play a little bit less but she’s just not played enough and that shows up.”

It was the first match for Serena since the Australian Open and it was not a very good one. She lost in straight sets to Podoroska but Navratilova is not worried saying:

“Her game is fine, her movement is as good as it’s been the last ten years. But, when you have to put it all together under pressure, if you haven’t been under pressure enough you will not be able to do it."

Navratilova also gave her opinion on the two upcoming Grand Slams which are major objectives for Serena as she continues to chase records. Martina said:

“Very little chance at Roland Garros, very good chance at Wimbledon." For Navratilova, the decision to go to Parma is a sensible one because in her opinion Serena just needs more matches.
