Williams says No. 20 was about as tough as any of her majors (Yahoo Sports)

When someone has won as many significant matches and titles as Serena Williams - her Grand Slam trophy count now stands at 20 - it can be hard to decide how to sort them by degree of difficulty or order of importance. Hours earlier, she had beaten Lucie Safarova 6-3, 6-7 (2), 6-2 in a seesaw final for her third title at Roland Garros, despite dealing with an illness that Williams said made her consider pulling out of the tournament. In four other matches at Roland Garros this year, Williams lost the opening set.
