As she has done for most of the past 18 summers, Venus Williams on Monday June 27,2016 took a large, languid stride into the second round of Wimbledon.
Venus Williams(DOB June 17,1980),the oldest woman in the main singles draw, five-times champion Williams was at times sublime as she beat Croatian Donna Vekic 7-6(3) 6-4 on a sunny Court One.
While the full Williams armoury had been on display, it was her mental strength which stood out -- perhaps no surprise given she is playing her 71st grand slam singles tournament, a record among current female players.
