It seems like it was only a few weeks ago that the tennis world crowned a new Major champion in Garbine Muguruza at Roland Garros 2016. Well, it seems that way because it actually was only a few weeks ago. Even with the extra week added this year in between Roland Garros and Wimbledon 2016, it kind of feels like Wimbledon quickly came upon us. But that’s not a bad thing. I can’t wait to see if a first time Major singles champion will emerge for the fourth straight Major, following Flavia Pennetta (US Open), Angelique Kerber (Australian Open) and Muguruza. One guess as to whom I would hope that is (hint: her picture is at the beginning of this post). Or will Serena Williams finally chase down Steffi Graf? Will Petra Kvitova find her groove again on the Center Court grass as she has before, capturing two Ladies Singles titles? Can Agnieszka Radwanska or Simona Halep, both Major runners-up, take that final step to glory? Those and other questions will soon be answered. For now, the players let their hair down and hit the carpet at the pre-tournament party.

Serena looks quite stylish in the photo with ATP star Dominic Thiem, The “Dominator” needs a little help in the style department as the shoes do not match the outfit!
