Well she did it - 6th ranked American Serena Williams beat 3rd ranked Polish Radwanska 6-1, 5-7, 6-2 in the ladies' singles final at Wimbledon's Centre Court Saturday afternoon and won the Wimbledon title for the fifth time.

While the first set was a piece of cake for Serena, winning 6-1, the second was certainly hard like the uneaten toast left by Prince Charles many many years ago on his wedding with Diana. Radwanska fought hard and took the match to 6-5 and broke Serena serve four times to win to win the set 7-5.

But it was the third set, which Serena did not want to give away and forced Radwanska to give in 6-2 and won the Wimbledon title.

She proudly raised the coveted Venus Rosewater Dish for the fifth time, she once clinched from her sister Venus Williams in 2009 and and held on to it for the fourth time in 2010 by beating Russian Vera Zvonareva 6–3, 6–2.

Today, she robbed a chance for Radwanska to win a Grand Slam for her country since it was last won  in 1939, and took position in the Wimbledon title holders of multiple champions below the name of her sister Venus.

Now let us wait for Sunday tomorrow ans see who amongst British Andy Murray and Swiss Roger Federer wins the men's single title. It may be added that the same scenario as of today prevails for tomorrow: Like  Radwanska , Andy Murray too eyes his maiden Wimbledon title and also wants to end a 74 years drought for his country of a Wimbledon title - and like Serena, Federer too eyes the Wimbledon title for the seventh time and equal the record held by William Renshaw and Pete Sampras.
