Agnieszka Radwanska reaches her first ever Wimbledon final by beating Angelique Kerber in straight sets.

Agnieszka Radwanska has booked her place in the final of Wimbledon after beating Angelique Kerber in straight sets.

Kerber made a strong start to the match, breaking the world number three in her second service game to take a 3-1 lead.

However, Radwanska fought back in spectacular fashion, winning the next five games in a row, breaking the German twice to take the first set 6-3.

Kerber, who was looking to become the first German in the women's Wimbledon final since Steffi Graf, made a solid start to the second set, only dropping one point in her opening two service games, but Radwanska responded with identical statistics.

The crucial break came in the fifth game of the set as Radwanska took control of the match, before holding onto her serve in a long game immediately after.

Kerber fought back, winning her next two service games, but she was unable to break Radwanska as she saw out a 6-3 6-4 win to reach her first ever Grand Slam final.
