Chinese star aiming for SW19 success

Li Na is 7/1 with Sky Bet to win Wimbledon after easing to her first Grand Slam win at the French Open against reigning champion Francesca Schiavone. Na beat the Italian in straight sets and became Asia's first Grand Slam winner at Roland Garros, making her fourth favourite to win at the All England club behind Maria Sharapova (7/2), Serena Wiliams (11/2) and Kim Clijsters who is available at the same price. The online bookmaker also have a number of Na Grand Slam specials and have priced the 29-year-old at 66/1 to win Wimbledon as well as the US Open in September, and 20/1 to reach final of both prestigious events. Sky Bet tennis trader Neil Brookes reckons Na could surprise a few of the favourites at Wimbledon later this month. He said: "Li Na's win at the French Open will fill her with confidence coming into the upcoming grass season, a surface she prefers. "She won a title on grass last season in Birmingham, but is yet to make it past the quarters at SW19." He added: "With question marks still over the fitness over a lot of the big names in the women's game, Na will be expecting to go deep into the second week at Wimbledon at the very least."
