Serena Williams makes it into Wimbledon finals

London

Serena Williams coasted into her eighth Wimbledon final on Thursday with a 6-2, 6-4 victory over old rival Maria Sharapova.

Five-time champion Williams will tackle Spanish 20th seed Garbine Muguruza for the title on Saturday in what will be her 25th final at the majors.

Victory would give the American her 21st Grand Slam title -- just one short of Steffi Graf's Open Era record of 22 -- and also allow her to hold all four majors at the same time.

Williams stretched her record over Sharapova to 18-2 with the Russian's last win over the 33-year-old coming back in 2004.
