Playing her first tennis since capturing the French Open title four weeks ago, Serena Williams was an easy opening-round winner Monday at Wimbledon.
After falling behind 1-3 in the first set on Day 1, the world No. 1 great responded by winning 11 of the next 13 games in a 6-4, 6-1 victory over little-known Russian Margarita Gasparyan at the venerable All England Club.
