 WIMBLEDON, England (AP) - Heeding advice from 1996 men's champion Richard Krajicek, Elena Dementieva helped Russian women finish 4-0 Friday at Wimbledon.
The Russians won all but two of the six women's third-round matches played. Two-time Grand Slam runner-up Dementieva was brimming with newfound confidence after she received serving tips from Krajicek.
The big Dutchman, armed with one of the most dominating serves in tennis, upset Pete Sampras at Wimbledon nine years ago and then beat MaliVai Washington in the final. On Friday, Dementieva defeated Washington's sister, Mashona, 7-5, 6-1.
