Serena Williams powered past Russian 21st seed Vera Zvonareva in 66 minutes to win a fourth Wimbledon and 13th Grand Slam title.The American came into the final having not dropped a set and with 80 aces, and she stormed to a 6-3 6-2 victory.
Zvonareva, playing in her first Grand Slam final, could do nothing to improve a 1-5 career record against Williams.
The victory takes Williams past Billie Jean King to sixth in the all-time list of female Grand Slam singles champions.
Williams retains the crown she won in 2002, 2003 and 2009, and ensures that between her and sister Venus, the title has stayed within the family for nine of the last 11 years.
