That wimbledon was epic! So many great matches and players could have won and deserved to win: From this (4th round!) match, to Venus-Pierce legendary quarter 2nd set tiebreak, to Venus-sharapova memorable semifinal first set to mauresmo-davenport and that record-breaking final

Best Wimbledon ever I agree

They always said the way to defeat Davenport was to get her on the move. Her defeated opponents sighed "how?" after barrages of pin point serves and cleanly struck deep and powerful groundstrokes from both sides, accompanied with excellent touch.

Mesmerising match up. Davenport unleashing her forehand and Clijsters supreme athleticism.

This Davenport on grass was just too good for Kim. She put in a great fight, but in the end the firepower from Davenport was just too much. Kim with two splits in one Point, but Lindsay finished it off with that beautiful FH cross. That 05 tournament has the best matches.

that point at 9:50 is just insane. Look at those retrievals by Clijsters and the counterpunching and yet Davenport STILL manages to win the point

And I think Your comment sort of sums up why Clijsters never won Wimbledon. She had weapons, but overall her game wasn't quite as offensive as a Davenport or Williams sisters. Her serve was good And she had a good return game, but neither of those aspects of her game were as explosive as those of the players who won here back then. Counterpunching only takes you so far on grass, even from this era after things slowed down...

She unleashed the FH in this match,Lindsay Davenport.

Lindsay played some of her best tennis and was in perhaps her best shape in 2004-2005, was always a little sad for her she didn’t pick up an extra slam during that time tho I love the Williams sisters too! 2004 US Open was really the one that got away the most, but Kuznetsova wasn’t a known entity yet and kinda just played out of her mind during that tournament.

Lindsay had a terrible record against Kim. This was such a great match for her.

The head to head was 9-8 in Kim's favor. I wouldn't say that's terrible. Lindsay dominated Kim early in the rivalry, and the last three matches were three set thrillers including this one here.

@@paulfraccalvieri, I have seen Lindsay play several times out here in California. I was able to meet her when I was working for Coca Cola. She defeated Monica Seles in the Semi's and World #1 at that time, Martine Hingis in the final. She was humble and sweet and I have loved her ever since.

Too much power from Davenport for Clijsters, impossible to defend and counterattack on grass. She somehow took it to the third but this was an easy win for Lindsay. On grass very few players (Venus) could compete with 99-05 Davenport
