Jittery Jackson looks to Venus for support
Claire Curran's doubles partner Jamea Jackson has secured a glamour second
round singles clash with Daniela Hantuchova.
Jackson, who recently shocked Maria Sharapova at the dfs Classic in
Birmingham, will play with Curran later in the week but first she will face
the number 15 seed from Slovakia.
And while initially admitting to feeling nervous about the Wimbledon
experience, unseeded 19-year-old Jackson is starting to enjoy the increasing
attention from the American media.
"I think any time you come to play a Grand Slam there's the nerves that come
with it. I think the rain delay actually helped me to settle down and get the
jitters out," said Jackson, who has been encouraged by reigning Wimbledon
champion Venus Williams.
"It was really cool today, Venus came up and talked to me. She kind of talked
me through things. I was honoured, you know, for that. She's awesome, I've
always been a big fan. I just need to stay focused."
Jackson set up tonight's clash with Hantuchova after defeating Belgian
Kirsten Flipkens 4-6, 6-4, 6-1.
Former Wimbledon champion Martina Hingis also plays tonight in a second round
meeting with Tathiana Garbin.
Meanwhile, Greg Rusedski has admitted that he will consider his future
following yesterday's first round exit at the hands of former Australian Open
champion Marat Safin.
