JaMychal Green added 10 points and 11 rebounds.Memphis managed only 30 percent shooting against the aggressive Jazz defense.

The 22-year-old fourth seed, who lost to Williams in last years Wimbledon final, became the first Spaniard to lift the Suzanne Lenglen Cup since Arantxa Sanchez Vicario in 1998.In her first final on the dirt at Roland Garros, she relied on a powerful first serve and jaw-dropping winners to subdue the top seed and world No 1 in a battle of will. I dont see Muguruza as a one hit wonder, tennis expert Cowan told Sky Sports. Theres a huge vacuum at the top of the womens game to take over that mantle of being able to lead the womens game along with Serena because it doesnt look as though shes going away anytime soon.Apart from [Victoria] Azarenka, theres no one else. There is a huge gap and people will ask the question, is it going to be Muguruza? Muguruza celebrates her victory by falling to the dirt on Court Philippe Chatrier I think in the next two or three months we will learn a lot whether she feels she can build on that. Shes at an age which she should be able to.Its not like shes winning a Slam at 18 - this should be the start. Shell be in the spotlight and not only will we expect great performances, but she will also expect great performances from herself.Shes not someone who can win three Slams a year, but I dont think she is someone who will stick on one Slam. Shell be in the spotlight and not only will we expect great performances, but she will also expect great performances from herself. Barry Cowan on Garbine Muguruza Williams, who was gunning for a professional era record 22nd major title, suffered a shock semi-final loss to Italian journeywoman Roberta Vinci at the US Open before defeat to Germanys Angelique Kerber in the Australian Open title match in January. Last years Wimbledon finalist poses with the Coupe Suzanne Lenglen after landing her maiden Grand Slam Her 7-5 6-4 loss to Muguruza, 12 years her junior, was the first time in her storied career that she had lost two successive Grand Slam finals and although Williams loss surprised Cowan, he believes she will return with a vengeance at Wimbledon where she will be defending her title.I thought Serena would win, admitted Cowan. Purely for the fact that shes shown, not just this week, but also at the French Open laast year, that shes never beaten and even when shes not playing her best tennis she can find a way.dddddddddddd Williams missed out on a 22nd Grand Slam title after she was shocked by Mugurza But you felt the way that she was there for the taking and although there was the question as whether a lot of players dont have to true belief to close it out, Muguruza did today.She won her first major and I thought she thoroughly deserved it. She was a lot more aggressive and looked a lot more composed at the big moments and that surprised Serena. Theyve played before and Serena has lost to her before at the French Open. Williams will be favourite to land her historic 22nd Grand Slam at Wimbledon, says Cowan Last year, I think you cant underestimate how much those three majors took out of Serena and obviously she was chasing two massive parts of history in trying to win all four majors, and as every major went by the pressure got more intense.It looks to me that she wants to equal Steffi Grafs open-era record of 22 Grand Slam titles so badly that sometimes it can be at the detriment of being able to play your best tennis and she seems a little inhibited at the moment.Im sure shell feel a little happy going onto grass where she is certainly more dangerous.I think she will do it because what I see from Serena is that burning desire to do it and when you have that burning desire, incredible talent as well as experience, it certainly adds in her favour.Follow our live blog of the mens final between world No 1 Novak Djokovic and Britains Andy Murray this Sunday from midday on skysports.com/tennis, our app for mobile devices and iPad and our Twitter account @skysportstennis.
