Against Williams, she won the first set with her signature shot: a forehand down the line. And when Kerber served for the match, Williams shot a 30-30 high defensive shot that landed deep, a shot that forced Kerber to generate the pace. She did not shrink responsibility. She coldly nailed another forehand on the line that landed on the opposite baseline with a puff of chalk for another winner.

When Williams lost the next point, the last point, with a backhand in the net, Kerber dropped his racket. She threw herself on her knees and began to cry while laying on the grass and the earth

She and Williams were soon on the side of Kerber's net for a prolonged hug

This becomes a Grand Slam tradition, contrasting styles. And Kerber has now won two of his three duels in the big finals: beating Williams in the 2016 Australian Open final, losing against Williams in the 2016 Wimbledon final and winning on Saturday.

Kerber, who also won the United States Open in 2016 Williams has won all three major tournaments at least three times, but for the moment, his total remains at 23 – a short of the record of the Court. 19659002] "It's a huge thing for her to come back after the last few months to be in the finals," Kerber said. "Of course, she was trying to do everything to beat me today, but I'm sure she will take her next Grand Slam and she will do the story for sure."

Fissette, who has now coached five players who beat Williams, said he felt his relatively easy draw, in which she faced no seeded player in the first five rounds, could have made him difficult to find the necessary equipment on Saturdays.
