LONDON - As Serena Williams prepares for her 35th Grand Slam semifinal, the American star said a fear of failure is driving her bid for an eighth Wimbledon title.
Williams avoided a major upset on Tuesday as the former world No 1 battled back to beat Italy's unseeded Camila Giorgi 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 in a Centre Court thriller.
The 36-year-old's quarterfinal escape set up a last-four meeting with German 13th seed Julia Goerges on Thursday.
