After defeating Germanyโ€™s Annika Beck 6-3 6-0 on Saturday, Williams moved into second place in the all-time listโ€”just six wins behind an Open-era record of 306, reports Bleacher Report.

Williams was as cool as a cucumber when she heard the news.

โ€œOh, was it? Cool. Oh, nice. I had no idea. Thatโ€™s awesome, right? I think thatโ€™s a lot of matches. Itโ€™s a lot of wins,โ€ Williams said.

โ€œI thought it was good. I still want to get out to a little bit of a faster start, but I was really focused and calm,โ€ she added. โ€œObviously I love having that Sunday off, but Iโ€™m a little behind in my matches, so I guess I had to play an extra day.โ€

The world No. 1 is vying for her seventh Wimbledon triumph.
