 Kvitova re-conquers Wimbledon.

Petra Kvitova of the Czech Republic won her second ladies' singles title at Wimbledon as she beat Canadian Eugenie Bouchard in straight sets 6-3, 6-0 on Saturday.

The Czech needed only 55 minutes to send Bouchard crashing and won at the All England Club three years after her maiden Grand Slam triumph in 2011.

The 20-year-old Bouchard should be satisfied with her performance at Wimbledon by storming through to her first Grand Slam final without losing a set. But at last it was experience that triumphed over youth.

Despite the loss, Bouchard is projected to rise from No. 13 to No.7 on the WTA rankings and will pass former world No. 8 Carling Bassett-Seguso to become Canada's highest-ranked player in WTA history. Kvitova will be world No. 4 on the rankings.
