It’s Muguruza vs. Williams in Wimbledon finals

Garbine Muguruza’s first appearance in Grand Slam semifinals was highly successful, as the 21-year-old Spaniard cruised through the first part of the match and then kept composure when her opponent Agnieszka Radwanska made a real comeback threat, winning all the games from being 3-1 down in the second set and starting the decider with a service break. However, the young Muguruza stayed strong, kept her shots impressive and prevailed 6-2 3-6 6-3 to make the final of Wimbledon. A rise from the current ranking of No.20 to a new career-high of No.9 is now ensured for Muguruza, while if she wins the title she could potentially climb to No.
