Maria reaches Wimbledon semifinals
Wednesday, 6 July 2022
LONDON, July 05 (AFP): Germany's Tatjana Maria came from behind to beat compatriot Jule Niemeier 4-6, 6-2, 7-5 on Tuesday and reach her first Grand Slam semi-final.
The 34-year-old mother of two will play either third seed Ons Jabeur or unseeded Marie Bouzkova for a place in the final.
"I have goosebumps everywhere," said Maria, who returned from maternity leave just under a year ago.
"My two little girls, it's a dream to live this with my family, to live this with my two girls. Almost one year ago I gave birth, it's crazy."
