Williams: I didn’t feel I was playing that well

Serena Williams left the Centre Court crowd in Wimbledon open-mouthed with a brutal dismantling of Victoria Azarenka yesterday, but was adamant she had not actually performed that well.

The 30-year-old was almost unplayable as she booked her place in a seventh Wimbledon final, crushing the second seed with an awesome display of serving and hitting from the baseline.

She sent down an All England Club record 24 aces and landed 45 winners as she left Azarenka squealing behind the baseline.
