Serena Williams rallies into Wimbledon semifinals

Serena Williams is two wins from her 24th Grand Slam singles title, eighth at Wimbledon and first since becoming a mom.

Williams rallied past Italian Camila Giorgi 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 in the Wimbledon quarterfinals on Wednesday.

Giorgi, ranked No. 52 in the world, stood up to Williams’ power game in the first set as Drake, Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel looked on at Centre Court. She snapped Williams’ streak of 20 straight sets won at Wimbledon since she lost an opener to countrywoman Christina McHale in the second round in 2016.
