The year-old Kerber has made two Grand Slam title matches in this breakthrough year. The one in Melbourne in January was the first of her career, and the German lefty stunned Serena Williams in three sets for the championship.
Then Kerber built on that success with her run at Wimbledon, where she lost to a nearly flawless Williams.
