Ademola Ayokanmi Daily : Serena Williams wins another Wimbledon title

In what has been termed sixth Serena Slam and the fourth Grand Slam, Serena Williams again on Saturday won Wimbledon Championship trophy to emerge No. 1 in the world women’s lawn tennis. She defeated her final opponent in the women Wimbledon category, Garbine Muguruza on 6-4, 6-4 points.

When the tournament began not much hope was placed on the American player due her slow start and eight double-faults. Serena while reacting to her victory over Muguruza, according to Associated Press (AP), said: I can't believe I'm standing here at another Grand Slam, so it's really cool," Williams said in an on-court interview after the match. "I'm having so much fun out here. I just never dreamt I would be out here still and let alone winning."

Saturday win, reported Yahoo News, means Williams holds all four Grand Slam titles at once — completing the second "Serena Slam" of her career. What's more, she secured the third leg of a calendar-year Grand Slam and, if she wins the U.S. Open, will become the first player to sweep all four majors in the same season since Steffi Graf in 1988.

Williams, who won her 28th straight Grand Slam match, is now just one major title behind Graf on the Open era list and two behind all-time leader Margaret Court.

At 33, Williams is also the oldest woman to win a Grand Slam title in the Open era. She has now won eight major championships in her 30s, including her first Wimbledon title since 2012.
