Williams was giving Halep the runaround and raced to the net as a point looked won, but the Romanian somehow produced a cross-court backhand winner at full stretch, leaving her opponent applauding the shot.
Stat of the day
The new champion admitted that she had never played a better match. Handy timing.
On yer head son
Frenchman Nicolas Mahut got more than he bargained for when he tried to defend a smash on the baseline and a 120mph overhead from Robert Farah left him floored when it reared up off the grass. It hit him above his left eye, which left him with an egg-shaped bruise on his forehead and required concussion checks from the doctor during a medical timeout.
Halep gets her wish
When the seventh seed was asked who she would like to be watching her in the Royal Box at the final, she replied "Kate. I like her." Well the Romanian got her wish as the Duchess of Cambridge attended the All England Club for the second time this fortnight, having also spent day two here.
