Roland Garros: Muguruza Shocks Serena To Win First Grand Slam


The 22-year-old is Spain’s Garbine Muguruza won 7-5 6-4 to make amends for losing last year’s Wimbledon final against the American.

The 4Th seed powered and outclassed world number one Serena Williams in straight sets to win her first grand slam title at the French Open.

She is now the first female champion from Spain at Roland Garros since the feat by Arantxa Sanchez-Vicario in 1998. Garbine prevented Serena Williams in winning her 22nd grand slam singles and tie Steffi Graf’s open-era record.

“This is the big tournament in Spain and Rafa (Nadal) is our champion,” she said courtside, referring to the nine-times men’s winner who pulled out injured last week.

Congratulations to her!!
