SERENA TO WIN HER WIMBLEDON TITLE


Serena Williams, the all-time champion in wimbledon and most favorite player among the tennis fans, won her 11th grand slam title here in London. Serena beat her sister venus williams in wimbledon to win her title. Serena leads her number when it comes to her sister. Serena won 11 times while her sister venus won 10 times in a head to head contest. Serena won in straight sets 7-6 (7-3), 6-2. It was the fourth time the sisters had met in a Wimbledon final.

However, the defending champion was still wearing the heavy strapping on her left leg that she had repeatedly insisted was not an issue throughout the fortnight.

Early matches between the pair were often disappointing as nerves and sibling concern took the edge off two usually fearsome competitors, but recent matches had been better, notably last year's Wimbledon final.

This latest contest was dominated by serve, and Serena was the first to falter in game eight when a forehand into the net brought up 15-40 and two break points for Venus.

Venus said: "Today she was too good, she had an answer for everything. She played the best tennis today so congratulations. I don't think the loss has set in yet because I'm still smiling.

"I've had so many great times here and of course I'm looking forward to next year and the doubles final later. I love what I do and most of all I love playing these finals."

WHO WILL WIN WHEN "NADAL FIGHTS WITH WILLIAMS SISTERS"



Nadal, top seeded in men and a strong guy in general, who has excellent skill and rally with him. Will Nadal wins against Williams sisters i.e. both venus and serena on one side and Nadal on other side. It will be definitely a tough match and no doubt about it. But it seems to be of high chance for Rafeal as his serve will be excellent and he wont miss out any of his serve. He can also break either serena or Venus serve to win the match. I welcome tennis lovers to say something about the result.
