The last time a women’s Grand Slam went three sets was at Wimbledon in 2006, when Henin lost to Amelie Mauresmo. Over a two-hour-and-seven-minute match, Henin’s shot making and grit often matched that of Williams, especially in a furious second set and the opening of the third – a span in which she won five straight games and 15 consecutive points.
