It was a bad day for old number 1 and defending champion Serena Williams as she was shown the exit by Spain's Garbine Muguruza in a most un-ceremonial defeat of Serena’s career. She was beaten 6-2, 6-2.

The aging 32 years old tennis star still sitting on the top of points table has started to show signs of breaking away just like Roger Federer, who too at 32 is showing signs of resignation.

Not only Serena, the elder sister Venus too was defeated by Slovakian Anna Schmiedlova today 2-6 6-3 6-4. This marks the end of their title race quest here at Roland Garros for this year.

It may be added that it was 2011 when both sisters crashed out of Wimbledon the same year.
