Williams wins Wimbledon for ‘Serena Slam’; Grand Slam next? (Yahoo Sports)
Serena Williams let herself briefly bask in the joy of a sixth Wimbledon championship, 21st Grand Slam singles trophy overall and fourth consecutive major title Saturday, even balancing the winner’s silver dish atop her head – Look, Ma, no hands! – as she sauntered off Centre Court. ”I was peaceful, feeling really good,” Williams said. When the U.S. Open begins at Flushing Meadows in August, Williams will pursue pretty much the only accolade to elude her so far: a calendar-year Grand Slam, something no one has accomplished in tennis in more than a quarter-century.
