Rohan Bopanna's bid to enter his maiden Wimbledon doubles final came to a disappointing end as he along with his Romanian partner Florin Mergea lost a marathon five-setter against fourth seeded Dutch-Romanian pair of Jean Julien-Rojer and Horia Tecau. Julien-Rojer and Tecau won 4-6 6-2 , 6-3, 4-6 , 13-11 in three hours and 23 minutes. For Bopanna, it was yet again a case of being so near yet so far after he lost another marathon five-setter semi-final back in 2013. Ironically, his partner was Julien-Rojer, who ended up on the winning side today. The final set turned out to be a battle of patience for both pairs as they held their respective services for 23 games. It was in the 24th game of the fifth set that the Indo-Romanian pair was broken and the match ended there itself.In the Women's singles,Garbine Muguruza became the first Spanish woman in 19 years to reach the Wimbledon final on Thursday with a roller coaster 6-2, 3-6, 6-3 win over Poland's Agnieszka Radwanska. In yet another encounter match Serena Williams of the United States is pitted against Maria Sharapova of Russia and the American was leading in the first set when the reports last came in.
