It was an emotional day for tennis superstar Serena Williams on Saturday, who broke down shortly after losing in the Ladies Single Final at Wimbledon.
Serena lost to Angelique Kerber from Germany on Saturday, who beat her 6-3, 6-3 to earn her third career title.
In doing so, Angelique prevented Serena from winning her 24th career Grand Slam title, which would have tied with Australian Margaret Court's all-time mark.
Her friend Meghan Markle was there to cheer her on regardless. She sat next to her sister-in-law Kate Middleton for the tennis festivities.
