Garbine Muguruza wins French Open 2016 by beating Serena Williams 7-5, 6-4

Garbine Muguruza beat Serena Williams in straight sets 7-5, 6-4 to win her maiden French Open grand slam title. In doing so, she defeated the world number one and defending champion Serena Williams in the 2016 French Open final.
This has been reported in indianexpress.com dated 5 June 2016.

Garbine Muguruza, the 22-year-old fourth seed, had lost to Williams in last year’s Wimbledon final and has now become the first Spaniard to lift the Suzanne Lenglen Cup since Arantxa Sanchez Vicario in 1998. It was her first final on the slow surface of Court Philippe Chatrier and she relied on a powerful first serve and jaw-dropping winners down the line to subdue the American in a battle of will.
Serena Williams was gunning for a professional era record 22nd major title and would have to wait some more.
