Not only did Venus Williams win her fifth Wimbledon singles title on Saturday, but she designed her own tennis dress! I woke up at 6 a.m. to watch the match live and it was worth it, Venus beat her sister, Serena Williams, in a hard-fought, high-quality battle: 7-5, 6-4. Watching the match from the royal box of the All England Club were Billie Jean King and Martina Navratilova. For the second year in a row, Venus acknowledged King in her speech saying "I love Billie." About four hours later, the sisters went out and won the doubles title - their third at Wimbledon as partners.

Here is an interview with the Williams sisters a few days before the final
