Madison Keys Faces Amanda Anisimova at Wimbledon

Madison Keys is set to face Amanda Anisimova in the third round at Wimbledon. The match is scheduled for July 4.

What happened?

Keys lauded Anisimova as "one of the best ball strikers in the game probably ever," with "one of the greatest backhands I think I've ever seen."

Anisimova came from behind to defeat Sofia Kenin 6-2, 4-6, 7-6[3] in the previous round.

The all-American matchup promises to bring excitement to the Wimbledon crowd. Keys has won seven grass-court matches in the last 10 days.

Anisimova won their only head-to-head meeting, a three-set comeback last year at the WTA Finals.

The winner of the match will advance to the next round of Wimbledon. Keys is looking to continue her winning streak on grass.

The match between Keys and Anisimova is expected to be a closely contested one, with both players looking to outmaneuver each other.

The temperature in London is projected to push past 80 degrees Fahrenheit on July 4, adding to the excitement of the match.

Keys has reached the third round for the 10th time in 12 Wimbledon main draws, after beating Great Britain's Katie Swan.

Anisimova hit three aces in the tiebreak against Kenin, which was emblematic of a trend in the match overall.

Twenty of her 42 winners in the match were aces, showcasing her strong serving skills.

The prospect of playing a player who employs the same first-strike style of tennis "helps raise [her own] level," according to Anisimova.

"I feel like oftentimes when I'm playing a hard hitter, the quality of the match is a lot better," she said.

Anisimova wasn't thrilled with the level she brought to the court against Kenin, even going so far as to dub some moments "awful".

But she reversed a 3-1 third-set deficit and found her best level when she needed it most in the 10-point final frame.

The match between Keys and Anisimova promises to be an exciting one, with both players looking to outdo each other.

Keys has been in good form, winning seven grass-court matches in the last 10 days, including the Eastbourne championship.
