Can Ana Ivanovic win the 2008 Wimbledon Title too?

Ana Ivanovic, as of press time, is the Queen of the tennis world.

The French Open women's champion will probably come in the 2008 All England Lawn Tennis Championships as one of the favorites to win the latest Grand Slam of the tennis calendar.

And for all ya'll who don't know squat what the All England Lawn Tennis Championships are all about, it's the 2008 Wimbledon Championships, the third Grand Slam tournament in tennis. It is also the most grandiose tennis tournament you'll find all over the world.

The Championships, commonly referred to as Wimbledon, is the oldest major championship in tennis and is regarded by many to be the most prestigious tennis championship in the world.

This year's Wimbledon will be held on June 23 until July 6 at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in London, England. The tournament is the third Grand Slam event played each year, preceded by the Australian Open and the French Open.

After Wimbledon, tennis will return to the States for the 2008 U.S. Open to culminate the 2008 tennis season.

And while the hot and sexy Maria Sharapova will probably return to England looking to defend her Wimbledon title, Ana Ivanovic will be looking to continue the momentum she got after winning the French Open at Roland Garros.

Ana Ivanovic, the 2008 French Open women's champion, is currently relaxing ahead of the coming Wimbledon wars in England. Ivanovic officially took over the top of the women's world rankings after beating Dinara Safina to win her first ever Grand Slam.

She hopes to add another Grand Slam crown by winning at the All England Club.

''I want to go there and win a title, because every tournament you play you want to win. Obviously now a lot of players will play their best tennis against me, because they want to show their best game,'' Ana Ivanovic said.

''I have a good chance. I've been working really hard, and this hard work gives results. I've some time to relax, recover, and also prepare on the grass before Eastbourne and Wimbledon.''
