5 experiences that made Wimbledon 2018 amazing

3. Serena, Kerber comeback to Wimbledon

About 10 months before Wimbledon 2018 started Serena Williams had just given birth and had a complication the next day. She had developed a pulmonary embolism which left her bedridden six weeks. Her coming back into tennis and playing well would've been the last thing on her mind(maybe not, given her dedication).

When the American appeared in a catsuit for the French Open and pulled out midway, there were quite a few concerned experts and fans. A solid show in the rounds and a great comeback in the quarters was enough to calm all those people down, including Williams herself.

Her opponent in the final too wasn't going through the best of phases in her tennis. Angelique Kerber had last won a grand slam almost 2 years ago. She had suffered first-round exits a few times since the victory in the US Open and hadn't reached a final before Wimbledon. But this time she was ready, she had improved her game, especially the serve.

On her way to the championship, Kerber lost only a single set and was incredibly solid all the way through. She was broken only a few times and dominated her way to the title. With this, three magnificent comebacks had been completed in the championships.
