Keys comes into the fourth round match after having beaten Elise Mertens convincingly in the previous round. She also beat Katie Swan and Lauren Davis in the earlier round. In fact, the American is one of the few players in the women’s side to have not dropped a set so far. It is also not to be forgotten that she has won couple of grass court tournaments a few years ago. Therefore, it is not surprising to see her in top-notch form on the grass this year. The 27-year-old is 5/1 on the surface till now in 2021 and is also a former quarterfinalist at the All England Club. Given her recent run and grass court efficiency, we can expect Keys to make a deep run at 2021 Wimbledon.

She kicked off her 2021 Wimbledon campaign by beating Veronika Kudermetova in three long sets. She also reached the quarterfinals of Eastbourne before losing to Annet Kontaveit. With eight wins to three loses, she is decently warmed on the grass this year. The Swiss girl is into her first fourth round appearance at the Championships and who knows how where she can end up?
