Hampered for much of this season by injuries or illness, she is as close to being back to her best as she’s been in a while

United States' Serena Williams celebrates after beating Germany's Julia Goerges in a Women's singles match during day six of the Wimbledon Tennis Championships in London, Saturday, July 6, 2019.

Two more key stats on the paper she brought to her media session: She produced more winners than unforced errors, 19-15, while Goerges finished with 32 forced errors, a reflection of just how difficult Williams can make it for opponents to handle shots she sends their way.After averaging 10 aces in the first two rounds, Goerges was limited to half that many.

Williams, who is seeded 11th, will face No. 30 Carla Suarez Navarro, while the other matchups on the top half of the women’s field established Saturday are No. 1 Ash Barty, who has a 15-match winning streak, against unseeded Alison Riske of the U.S.; No. 21 Elise Mertens against Barbora Strycova; and two-time champion Petra Kvitova against No. 19 Johanna Konta of Britain.

“For me, I’m very happy how it’s going so far,” said Federer, a 7-5, 6-2, 7-6 winner over No. 27 Lucas Pouille. “I hope it’s going to take a special performance from somebody to stop me, not just a mediocre performance.”Story continues below advertisement
