Serena mobbed after win, questions security

Monday, July 02, 2012 /by

Serena Williams is mobbed on her way back from Wimbledon's Court 2 after her three-set victory over Yaroslava Shvedova. The walk  between Court No. 2 and the players' locker room is between 150-200 yards.

"I was totally mobbed," Serena said. "Literally I thought I was going to fall down today after the match. I guess that comes with the territory. It was crazy out there today."

Williams added that Wimbledon should take into account security issues for future scheduling. "I literally was almost knocked over today," she said. "The security, was tons of security guards in there just going nuts and screaming. I've never heard them scream so loud. Maybe that can be taken into consideration."

Serena added that she was not scared. "Nobody's going to knock me over for real," she said with a laugh. "I'd like to see that happen. You guys know how I can get. Maybe that's why I got on Court 2, because they knew I could back myself up. When it boils down, I guess I really didn't need it."
