Serena won a gold medal in women’s singles at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, matching the gold won by her sister Venus at the 2000 Summer Olymics in Sydney. She won the 2013 French Open on June 8, 2013. Serena won the French Open on June 6, 2015, which marked her third time taking the crown there, as well as winning her 20th Grand Slam title.
