Rafael Nadal blasts Berdych, rolls to second Wimbledon title
Rafael Nadal, who sat supine on a sofa for the Wimbledon final in 2009, picked up where he left off two years ago by collecting his second title Sunday.
Top-ranked Nadal dominated big-hitting Tomas Berdych of the Czech Republic 6-4, 7-5, 6-4 in just 2 hours, 13 minutes to reinforce his current status as the No. 1 player in the game. It was Nadal's eighth major and second in a row after winning Roland Garros.
After the final point was secured, Nadal collapsed on his back on the turf at the baseline and covered his face with his hands. After congratulating Berdych, Nadal leaped out of his chair and did a front somersault on the grass, rising to his feet with both fists clenched. |
Serena wins Wimbledon again, claims 13th Grand Slam title
Just 24, Nadal joins some elite company. He is now tied with Andre Agassi, Jimmy Connors, Ivan Lendl, Fred Perry and Ken Rosewall in Grand Slam titles.
Serena Williams didn't play in front of the queen at Wimbledon, but she sure played like royalty.
Williams, the top-seed and defending champion, dominated Russia's Vera Zvonareva 6-3, 6-2 to win her fourth Wimbledon crown.
Williams served nine aces, broke three times and never faced a break point in nine service games. She finished the tournament without dropping a set. After converting an overhead smash to finish the match, Williams tossed her racket away, bent backward, looked to the sky, shook her fists and screamed.
Williams, who improved to 13-3 in Grand Slam finals, added to the Wimbledon titles she won in 2002, 2003 and 2009. However, this was the first time she defeated someone other than her sister Venus in the final. |
2009 Wimbledon Tennis Winners
Federer Wins Wimbledon 2009
Roger Federer hoisted the trophy and celebrated making Grand Slam history, a year removed from an epic five-set final when he left Wimbledon a broken man, his title ripped away and his aura of invincibility shattered.
Federer waged another five-set marathon Sunday, and left as the holder of the most prestigious record in tennis. This time, the winner's trophy belonged to him, with the No. 1 ranking in his grasp again and his reputation enhanced as perhaps the greatest player in history.
Federer won his record 15th Grand Slam title, outlasting Andy Roddick for his sixth Wimbledon championship in a match that went to 30 games in the final set.
Federer served a career-high 50 aces and overcame the resilient American 5-7, 7-6 (6), 7-6 (5), 3-6, 16-14 to break the record of major titles he shared with Pete Sampras.
Serena Williams Wins Wimbledon 2009
Her lean frame, long limbs and tidy footwork are the perfect tools to win on the half-baked
grass of the All England Club.
She was stalking her sixth Wimbledon title, a number that would place her third behind only Martina Navratilova (nine) and Steffi Graf (seven). There was nothing to suggest Venus wouldn't do it. Venus throttled world No. 1 Dinara Safina in the semifinals 6-1, 6-0 -- the worst beating a WTA No. 1 has ever taken, going back to the origins of the rankings system. Venus had won 34 consecutive sets here and was going for the three-peat, something that hadn't happened since Graf won three straight Wimbledon titles from 1991 to '93.
Well, it didn't happen on Saturday. Venus' younger sister, Serena, happened in a very big way. After losing in last year's final to Venus -- in straight sets -- she seethed. One year later, she played with an almost disturbing violence and vengeance and won 7-6 (3), 6-2.

Nadal victory over Federer
WIMBLEDON, England - Rafael Nadal's first Grand Slam title off clay was never going to be easy, but this was ridiculous.
Who knew the Spaniard would have to come through arguably the greatest men's final ever in his phenomenal 6-4, 6-4, 6-7 (5), 6-7 (8), 9-7 victory over five-time defending champion Roger Federer at Wimbledon?
Maybe the only one who knew was the 22-year-old Spaniard, who defined heroic in an epic 4-hour, 48-minute contest in which Federer proved equally deserving of the title.
"Probably my hardest loss, by far," a despondent Federer said later.
Had he lost the match — where he was in control in every set — Nadal may have never mentally recovered from the defeat. As hard as he's worked to become a better fast-court player, winning major championships over legends such as Federer on quick courts are all about seizing the few chances you have earned.
It took Nadal until dusk fell to do so. After watching Federer come up with three rip-roaring winners on his first three match points, Nadal finally saw a better sight — the 12-time Grand Slam winner nudged an easy forehand into the net in a match where winners ruled the day.
Nadal then slid on to the few blades of grass that were left in the middle of the baseline, rolled around in the dirt, ran up to hug his family and friends and then scooted over the Royal Box to shake hands with Prince Felipe and Princess Letizia of Spain, the first player to make the approach to royalty in history.
"It's a special feeling," Nadal said with a wide smile.
Venus Beats Sis for Wimbledon Women’s Title
This time, the older Williams sister beat the younger one.
Venus Williams of the United States, 28, yesterday beat Serena in the women’s singles final of Wimbledon in London.
The seventh-seeded Venus topped the sixth-ranked Serena, 26, in straight sets, 7-5, 6-4, to claim her fifth Wimbledon singles’ title.
Venus had not beaten her younger sister in the final of a major tournament since the 2001 U.S. Open, and is now 1-5 against Serena in the finals.
The two sisters fought hard for the title with strong serves and sharp strokes. They threw their rackets in frustration after making mistakes.
The more experienced and focused Venus emerged the winner, but the sisters soon came back and hugged each other after the game.
Venus said, “You could never detract from winning a Wimbledon, so of course it doesn’t detract from that. But I’m definitely thinking about how my sister’s feeling.”
2007 Wimbledon Winners
England, July 7 — Marion Bartoli hit the ball to the corners, aiming her two-handed forehands and deceptively quick backhands as far from Venus Williams as the lines on the court would allow. But the court was too small for Bartoli to have a chance. The 6-foot-1 Williams, with a lunging stride and long arms, seemed to reach them all. In doing so Saturday, Williams won her fourth Wimbledon title, probably her unlikeliest, adding to the championships she won in 2000, 2001 and 2005. She became the first woman at Wimbledon to win the same prize money as the men’s champion — roughly $1.4 million.
Williams, seeded 23rd after a couple of injury-shortened seasons, also became the lowest-seeded player in history to win the women’s title — a record that would have gone to Bartoli, had she won instead. But Williams’s résumé and resurrected championship form made her an overwhelming favorite to beat Bartoli, who had never advanced as far as the quarterfinals of a major until this one.
England, July 8 — In a matter of moments, three sides of Roger Federer were on display at Center Court. First came the deft and forceful overhead smash that won him the Wimbledon championship. Then came the emotional reaction: Federer dropped to his knees, rolled onto his back with his hands over his face, and sat up with tears in his eyes. Finally, to the rousing cheers of fans, including Bjorn Borg, Federer came gliding in to accept the winner’s trophy. He wore a sheepish grin and — after a Superman-like change of clothes — his trademark white pants, white vest and white monogrammed blazer with gold trim. There is always a dash of style with Federer, the 25-year-old from Switzerland, and now he has reached a nearly unprecedented level of substance. Federer beat Rafael Nadal, his 21-year-old Spanish rival, in five sets Sunday, 7-6 (7), 4-6, 7-6 (3), 2-6, 6-2, joining Borg as the only men’s players in the last 100 years to win Wimbledon five times in a row. The victory was the first five-set match of Federer’s five-year reign at Wimbledon, and the first in any of his appearances in Grand Slam finals, where he is now 11-2 (Nadal is the only man to have beaten him, in the past two French Open finals). On Sunday, as Federer basked in another Wimbledon victory, Nadal stood nearby, wearing a brave smile.
