Garbine Muguruza reveals she wants to dance with Roger Federer at Wimbledon dinner
GARBINE MUGURUZA has revealed she wants to dance with Roger Federer.
Muguruza beat Venus Williams 7-5, 6-0 on Centre Court today to win her first Wimbledon title.
The Venezuela-born Spaniard now has two Grand Slams to her name after winning the 2016 French Open, and admitted she would be watching the men's final at Wimbledon tomorrow with special interest.
When asked who she would prefer to dance with, Roger Federer or Marin Cilic, Muguruza paused before answering: "Roger!"
The media who had assembled for her post-match press conference burst into widespread laughter, with Muruguza cracking up too.
"I like Cilic, but I would like to see if Roger has the same elegance dancing (as on the court)," she added.
The tradition of the Wimbledon men's and women's winners sharing a dance at the Champions' Ball on the final Sunday night of the fortnight has not been strictly adhered to since the 1970s.
But Novak Djokovic brought it back in 2015 by dancing with Serena Williams.
And Muguruza will have to wait and see who she might be costing up to tomorrow night...
