Czech eighth seed Petra Kvitova won her maiden Grand Slam title with a 6-3 6-4 dismissal of Maria Sharapova at Wimbledon.
The 21-year-old, who becomes the first Czech to win the title since Jana Novotna in 1998, served out the match to love with her first ace of the day on championship point.
Petra played a fantastic Wimbledon Final.
Wimbledon comes through again!
I may live in the USA but Wimbledon is the best! All of England should be proud.

Alice told me it was a fantastic match. I was out golfing and will have to wait
for a replay to watch it myself.

You missed a great match. Petra was fantastic…Maria wasn’t.
