Wimbledon 2015: Serena Williams sitting pretty in line for 21st slam

London: Serena Williams insists she doesn’t care about making history even though the world number one can add more lustre to her legacy with victory over Garbine Muguruza in Saturday’s Wimbledon final.

As if winning the sixth Wimbledon title and 21st major of her career wouldn’t be enough to underline Serena’s credentials as one of the all-time greats, she has a slew of other milestones within reach in her 25th Grand Slam final.

After demolishing Maria Sharapova to move into her eighth Wimbledon final, Serena, who has a remarkable 38-1 record in 2015, is just one victory away from holding all four major titles at the same time  a rare feat she last achieved in 2002-03.

Perhaps most significantly, lifting the Venus Rosewater Dish for the first time since 2012 would leave Serena needing only to defend the US Open to become the first woman since Steffi Graf in 1988 to claim a calendar Grand Slam.

But rather than dwell on those legacy-defining possibilities, Serena made it clear she no longer frets about her place in the pantheon of tennis greats. “I don’t want the pressure of that. I’ve won many Grand Slam titles. I’m in a position I don’t need to win another Wimbledon,” she said.
