LONDON - Just how badly things were going for Serena Williams in Saturday’s Wimbledon final against Simona Halep was summed up by a booming plea that came from the crowd: “Wake up Serena!”
A day when Williams had been expected to equal Margaret Court’s all-time record of winning 24 Grand Slam singles titles ended with the 37-year-old American suffering her heaviest defeat in a major final. “Today nothing really helped. I made way too many errors for a lot of stuff to work,” said Williams, who trailed 4-0 before finally registering on the scoreboard.
“In my 20s I was always expected to win but... seems like every Grand Slam final I’m in recently has been an unbelievable effort to get there,” said the former world number one, who had played only five tournaments this year before her run at the All England Club.
