Wimbledon queen targets King

NEW Wimbledon champion Serena Williams is already thinking about winning her 12th grand slam singles title to draw level with her idol Billie Jean King.

The 27-year-old claimed her 11th major title with a 7-6 (7/3) 6-2 victory over sister Venus in the Wimbledon final. It was Serena’s first Wimbledon crown since her double in 2002 and 2003 – when she beat Venus on both occasions – and continued her recent dominance of the slams as she made it three titles from the last four.

The world number two is certainly not resting on her laurels, though. Reflecting on grand slam number 11, she said: “It’s unbelievable. I just feel really good. I feel like now I’m just not even in a competition of how many I can win.
