July 4, 2009 Serena beats sister Venus in Wimbledon final

WIMBLEDON, England (AP) - Serena Williams has won her third Wimbledon title, beating sister Venus Williams 7-6 (3), 6-2 in the final.

The second-seeded Serena also beat Venus in the 2002 and '03 Wimbledon finals, but lost to her older sibling in last year's championship match at the All England Club.

Serena improved to 6-2 against Venus in Grand Slam finals on Saturday, and has won 11 major titles in her career.
