W VENUS WIN 5TH WIMBLEDON A MURREY?


 Serena Williams wins  fifth Wimbledon title as she draws level 



Radwanska in the Wimbledon women's final, taking the title for the fifth time to match her sister Venus's record at the Championships.
The U.S. champion dominated the first set, although the Polish player won the second as she began to gain confidence and fight back. In the third, however, the younger of the Williams sisters finished the job in clinical fashion.
The 30-year-old winner crumpled to the ground in relief as she sent the final ball past Radwanksa, then clambered into the stands to embrace her father and sister.

Marray's done it - now for Murray! S


Andy Murray was not the only one to make history on Saturday, as compatriot Jonny Marray became the first Englishman to reach the men's doubles final in 52 years.
They will now face Robert Lindstedt and Horia Tecau or Jurgen Melzer and Philipp Petzschner in the final today.

The Bryans looked determined to level the match and they forced their opponents on the back foot in the second.
They earned three break points in the fifth game but an unreturnable serve from Marray and two unforced errors from the Bryans meant the Anglo-Danish pair survived.
Marray and Nielsen survived two more break points in the 10th and the frustrations of the defending champions boiled over soon after.
Bob Bryan criticised a line judge's call and then sarcastically called for a challenge before remarking: 'Oh no, we can't challenge because we are on Court 12.'
A tense tie-break followed and the Americans initially took control, breaking when Nielsen netted.
His partner broke back immediately with a sweet backhand and a wayward backhand from Bob Bryan handed Marray and Nielsen the set.
Winners! Jonathan Marray of Britain and Frederik Nielsen of Denmark finish the game - and seal their victory
