Kaia Kanepi tubli esitus Wimbledonis suurturniiril lõppes veerandfinaalis esireketi Serena Williamsi alistanud sakslanna Sabine Lisicki vastu. Kanepi kaotas 3:6, 3:6.

Lisicki, kes oma neljal Wimbledoni turniiril järjest French Open'i tiitlikaitsja välja lülitanud, murdis Kanepi esimeses setis esmakordselt kohe avageimis. Edasi suutsid mõlemad servigeimi hoida, kuni otsustava üheksanda geimini, kui Lisickil taas murda õnnestus ning avaseti 3:6 kaotus oli Kanepile tõsiasi.

Teises setis suutis Kanepi kolmandas geimis Lisickit murda ning eestlanna haaras 2:1 eduseisu. Kahjuks lasi Kanepi aga kohe vastu murda ning enam Lisicki tagasi ei vaadanud. Teine sett lõppes samuti 2:6 kaotusega.

Matš kestis tund ja 5 minutit. Kanepi lõi 4, Lisicki 3 ässa. Topeltvigu tuli Kanepil 3, Lisickil 4. Sundimata vigu kogunes Kanepile 23, Lisickile 19.
