The Ladies Final of Wimbledon was played today with Serena Williams defeating Vera Zvonareva in 2 sets, 6-3 and 6-2. Serena wins her 13th Grand Slam Title overall, her 4th Wimbledon title overall, and 2nd Wimbledon Title in a row. In fact, the Williams sisters have taken the last four Wimbledon Championships with two to Venus and two to Serena. Ladies tennis usually has the Williams sisters dominating for most of the year though it seems like it is more Serena than Venus. Venus' last Grand Slam title came at Wimbledon back in 2008. Serena, meanwhile, has won five Grand Slams since that time. Anyway, Serena is the top winner for Ladies at the Championships.
P.S. Why is it that the ladies winner gets a plate while the Men's get a trophy? I'm sure they get the same monetary prize but why not the same award equipment?
