Serena Williams Adds another Title to her Grand Slams by Clinching fifth Wimbledon

Serena Williams quite convincingly clinched another  Wimbledon crown that is actually her fifth on Saturday. Though she suffered second set defeat at the hands of first-time finalist Agnieszka Radwanska, but she bounced back strongly to clinch the fifth Wimbledon with 6-1, 5-7, 6-2, her 14th Grand Slam title.


Serene has repeated the history after 22 years on the footsteps of Martina Navratilova who hoisted the Rosewater Dish in 1990. It was Serena's first major title since suffering a severe foot injury and pulmonary embolism.

Radwanska failed in her bid to get to No. 1 and become the first major winner from Poland. She fell out of the match early, getting broken in her first two service games and barely avoiding a first-set bagel. Radwanska hung tough in the second set after a brief rain delay. The No. 3 seed battled back from a break down to even the set at 4-4 with the benefit of a poor line call. With Serena shell-shocked from the quick comeback, Radwanska stormed to a 7-5 win.

Serena's dominant play on Sunday continued a stellar run of play throughout the final week of the tournament. Serena broke a Wimbledon record for aces in her fourth-round win and then broke her own record three days later. In her final three matches, Serena played the Nos. 2, 3 and 4 seeds. She lost a total of 21 (at 4-3 in third) games en route to the title. The dominant final stretch was especially impressive considering her slow start at the All England Club. She was pushed to three sets in the third and fourth round against No. 25 Jie Zheng and unseeded Yaroslava Shvedova. Against Zheng, Serena needed a 9-7 third set to advance.
Serena and her sister Venus have combined to win 10 of the past 13 Wimbledons. The sisters play later on Saturday for their fifth Wimbledon doubles title.
