Romania’s Simona Halep celebrates winning the final against Serena Williams of the U.S.

Simona Halep became the first Romanian to win a Wimbledon singles title after she beat seven-times champion Serena Williams 6-2 6-2 in the final on Saturday.

The result denied Williams from equalling Margaret Court’s all-time record of winning 24 Grand Slam singles titles.
