Wimbledon 2017: Venus Williams powers her way to third round after defeating against Wang Qiang

London: Venus Williams has come back to win and reach Wimbledon’s third round after dropping the opening set against Wang Qiang of China. [caption id=“attachment_3780573” align=“alignleft” width=“380”]Venus Williams of the United States celebrates after winning the Women’s Singles Match against China’s Qiang Wang on day three at the Wimbledon Tennis Championships in London Wednesday, July 5, 2017. (AP Photo/Alastair Grant) Venus Williams celebrates after winning the match against Qiang Wang on day three at Wimbledon. AP[/caption] Williams powered her way through the final set to pull out the 4-6, 6-4, 6-1 victory. She wound up with more than twice as many winners as her opponent, 43 to 20. This is Williams’ first tournament since a two-car crash police say she caused in Florida on 9 June. A 78-year-old passenger in the other vehicle died about two weeks later. Williams also beat Wang at the French Open in May. The 55th-ranked Wang has never been to the third round at a Grand Slam tournament. Williams owns seven major titles, including five at Wimbledon. Wednesday’s match was her 97th in the main draw at the All England Club, breaking a tie with her sister Serena for the most among active players.
