Zvonareva Faces Big Odds Against Serena Williams

Vera Zvonareva has never played in a Grand Slam final before. At No. 21, the Russian is the second-lowest ranked player ever to reach the Wimbledon women's final. Her opponent is the world's top-ranked player and a three-time Wimbledon winner.

Nothing to worry about then.

"I don't care what everyone says," the 25-year-old Zvonareva said. "I know if I can play my best tennis I can beat anyone on the other side of the net. That's what I'm going to try to do on Saturday. I never look at any odds or comparisons. It's not important to me."

Standing on the other side of the net will be none other than defending champion and 12-time Grand Slam winner Serena Williams.

"I'm hoping to still peak in the final," said Williams, a scary thought from someone who hasn't dropped a set in six matches and has served a Wimbledon record 80 aces.

Williams will be playing in her sixth Wimbledon final and 13th Grand Slam title match, and knows Centre Court at the All England Club as well as anyone in the game.

"On paper it looks like I should win," Williams said. "But Vera, she's beaten some good people. Her last two matches she's been down a set, so she's obviously a fighter. She never gives up. The biggest thing for me is to stay positive and not put too much pressure on myself."
