Serena Williams advances to 2 round of the 2019 Wimbledon

But back at the All-England Club, where she’s lifted the Venus Rosewater Dish seven times in her career, a healthy-looking Serena put on a confident showing on Centre Court to claim the victory, 6-2, 7-5. 

“I think right now I have to have every match count like 10 matches, because I haven't had a ton of matches this year,” Serena told press after the win.

“I learned a lot from that match, just going to keep the momentum going.”
