Venus Williams ‘brushed’ away French Open winner, Jelena Ostapenko 6-3, 7-5 on Tuesday to become the oldest Wimbledon semi-finalist for twenty three years.
The 73-minute master class on centre court made the thirty seven years old the most senior tennis player to reach the last four since Martina Navratilova in 1994.
