Jason Kubler blasts past Julien Cagnina into Boys’ Singles semis – Wimbledon Championships 2011
Australian wild card Jason Kubler slew Belgian Julien Cagnina with a breadstick at Boys’ Singles – Wimbledon Championships 2011, a major grass court tournament held in London, United Kingdom. He barely sweated in the second set
to register a 6-3, 6-1 score line and secured a semi-final spot in this event on Thursday.
The Aussie swept past Cagnina in straight sets in just fifty-two minutes at All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club. With the help of six aces and eighteen winners, Kubler triumphed over the Belgian, who stunned seventh seeded
Austrian Dominic Thiem to reach this place, to book a last four spot at this Grand Slam event.
18-year-old calmly entered Court nineteen and easily bagged entire serves through blistering forehands from his arsenal of skills. He only require a single breakpoint, which he duly earned, to clinch the opener with a 6-3 score
line in twenty-nine minutes. Kubler clobbered a better first serve share of 69 percent as compared to Cagnina’s 59 percent and registered a spectacular 89 percent win on it.
He kept momentum rolling into the final set and smoothly held his opening serve. Kubler then unleashed barrage of groundstrokes to reel off six games and lost just one game to earn a breadstick. The Aussie outshined Cagnina in
every department of tennis as he produced an amazing 88 percent first serve share as opposed to Belgian’s 61 percent and earned an impressive 77 percent win on it. He faced zero breakpoints and converted three out of five breakpoint opportunities to his advantage
to seal the deal in just twenty-three minutes.
Kubler is in great run of form this season. He confidently entered SW-19 and has lost just one set so far. He lost the opening set of his first round match against Croat Mate Delic. However, the Aussie raised the bar of his game
for the rest of the event as he won against fourth seeded British Oliver Golding and American Marcos Giron in straight sets to reach this spot.
He will next face fifteenth seeded British Liam Broady at his home soil and it would be a tough duel for the Aussie.
Broady downed Belgian qualifier Robin Kern in trouble three sets to secure this final four spot. He saved seven out of nine breakpoints conceded and converted two out of nine breakpoint opportunities to his advantage to clinched
the match with a 7-6(4), 4-6, 13-11 score line at Court Eighteen. He produced a higher first serve share of 68 percent as compared to Kern’s 56 percent and registered a plausible 73 percent win on it.
