Serena Williams will defend her Wimbledon crown against Angelique Kerber on Saturday, where the world No. 1 is searching for revenge following her Australian Open defeat earlier this year.

It was Kerber who prevented Williams from beginning her year with silverware in Melbourne with her maiden Grand Slam championship, and she returns to Centre Court hoping to further her success on grass this time around.
