Maya Joint defeated Serena Williams 6-3, 6(6)-7(8), 6-3 — Wimbledon 2026 R128.
Serena Williams and Maya Joint: Maya Joint leads 1–0 across 1 recorded meeting.
The decider turned on the return, where Maya Joint cashed in 5 of 11 break points to Williams' 3 of 11 — and broke twice in the third, the second to close it. After Serena Williams forced a second set on a 7-6(6) tiebreak, the No. 53 reset, winning 69% of first-serve points in set three. Joint converted both her break chances in that final set and ended a five-match losing run on debut against the unranked Williams at Wimbledon.
