Serena Williams beat her older sister Venus, 7-6 (3), 6-2, to win her 3rd Wimbledon title and her 11th Grand Slam championship on the 4th of July.

“It feels so amazing,” Serena said. “I’m so blessed. I feel like I shouldn’t be holding the trophy. I can’t believe I’m holding it. It’s named for Venus and she always wins.”

Before the game Serena said she tried forgetting Venus was her sister.

“I didn’t think about Venus at all today,” Serena said. “I just saw her as an opponent. At one point, after the first set, I looked on the side of the court at the stats, and it was like ‘Williams, Williams.’ I couldn’t figure out which was which.”

Serena has always been recognized as the better Williams sister, and this match proved why.
