Garbine Muguruza—all of 21 years old and playing in her first Grand Slam final—did exactly what one has to do when facing the great Serena Williams. She came out firing, hitting aggressive shots and building up a 2-0 lead, then 3-2, in the first set of the Wimbledon 2015 women’s singles final on Saturday. But it was not enough.
