Sania partnered with the American Bethanie Mattek to play in the women`s doubles category in the Wimbledon and the 13th seeded pair lost its quarterfinal match against the pair of Venus and Serena Williams by straight sets. The 11th seeded Williams sisters defeated Sania and Mattek by 6-4 6-3 in the match and that marked the end of Sania Mirza`s this year`s campaign in Wimbledon, as she lost her mixed doubles match earlier, as well.
In their rain interrupted match on Wednesday, the Indo-US pair of Sania and Mattek could not put on much pressure on the Williams sisters, as both Venus and Serena were playing very well. The first set saw an equal battle between the two pairs, however, it was the wonderful understanding between the Williams sisters, that helped them to clinch the set by 6-4.
The Indo-US pair made a very good come back in the second set and they were leading by 3-0 in the set, at a point of time. However, they failed hold that advantageous position, as Venus and Serena Williams broke the service of Sania-Mattek in the fifth game and then hold their own to level the score 3-3. The Williams broke their opponents` service once again in the seventh and ninth game and went on to win the set by 6-3.
