• Serena Williams’ wait for a 24th grand slam title goes on
Tiger Woods and Serena Williams could spend hours talking about struggle and pain – as black American athletes in historically white sports, and champions searching in the autumn of their careers for the magic that made them great.
Woods, rebuilding his golf career at 42 after a string of back operations, stopped off at Wimbledon on his way to the Open at Carnoustie. He was a quiet presence at the back of the Williams team box as the seven-times champion fought like a tiger but could not quieten the ferocity of Angelique Kerber, six years her junior and a new Wimbledon champion.
