Sharapova vs Kvitova 2011. Sharapova vs Kvitova preview Wimbledon Finals 2011. Petra Kvitova brings three titles from 2011 into her Saturday Wimbledon final with Maria Sharapova, with the Czech challenger hoping to go one better than compatriot Tomas Berdych, who lost a men's title bid a year ago.
Kvitova will face off against the formidable firepower of Russian Maria Sharapova, whose pedigree includes the 2004 All England club championship which she earned seven years ago at age 24.
She then went onto lift trophies at the Australian and US Opens before being felled for several season by shoulder surgery and a long-running comeback effort which is only now starting to pay huge dividends.
Eighth seed Kvitova hopes to be fearless on court against the heavily favoured Sharapova, playing a fifth Grand Slam final.
But the Czech will have to supress the sensation that she doesn't belong in the biggest stage in the sport. 'I didn't think that I could win Wimbledon, but when I came here, I just played match after match and nothing more.
'Of course, I have the something to lose. But I'm going on the court for the win, I'll stay positive,' said the loser in the only previous match with Sharapova from nearly 18 months ago.
Sharapova's dream would be to cap her comeback by claiming her fourth major and first since the 2008 Australian Open.
'I feel like I've grown as a player and I've gotten better,' said Sharapova as she compared her game in 2004 to now. 'It gives me a lot of confidence moving forward.
'But it doesn't stop here, That I've reached this level, I'm just so happy and so proud. I always feel like there's more to improve and things to get better.
'You have to set goals for yourself in terms of as a tennis player and your life, otherwise it's not interesting.'
Kvitova owns four career titles to the 23 of Sharapova, with the Czech lifting three of those this season at Brisbane, Paris indoors and Madrid.
'It's good for her that she has the experience from the 2004. But still it will be different match, different opponent. It will be me, so we will see.'
