Spanish player, Garbine Muguruza has just won her first
Wimbledon title today as she overpowered 37-year-old Venus Williams, 7-5
6-0 in the Wimbledon finals.
Williams,
a five-time champion who had been trying to become the oldest winner of
a major in the Open era, had squandered two set points at 5-4 in the
first set. After Williams lost a 19-shot rally on the second set point,
the Spaniard ran away with the match as the American struggled to find
her range.
Muguruza's
triumph comes two years after she lost to Venus's younger sister,
Serena, in her maiden grand slam finals at the All England Club.
