SERENA WILLIAMS defeated Spaniard Garbine Muguruza in straight sets 6-4, 6-4 to win the 2015 Wimbledon Championship. In so doing, Williams completed the “Serena Slam” by winning four straight majors, a second time for her. This is Serena’s 6th Wimbledon win and her 21st Grand Slam. If Serena wins the US OPEN, she would become the first player since Steffi Graf in 1988 to complete the calendar-year grand slam.

With this win, Williams also became the oldest woman to win a Grand Slam singles title in the Open Era at 33 years and 289 days old, beating Martina Navratilova, who won the 1990 Wimbledon Championships at 33 years and 263 days old.
