After dominating the U.S Open tournament, Serena Williams will take home the win and keep on her crown. 

According to SI.com, Williams won over Caroline Wozniacki 6-3, 6-3, in Sunday’s match. This match was her last chance to win a Grand Slam, in order to make up for not making it to the quarterfinals in any other major tournaments.

Tonight’s win at New York’s Arthur Ashe Stadium makes for Williams’ thrid consecutive U.S. Open title.

Keeping the title isn’t the only thing Williams gained from this win. She’s now alongside Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova, on the list of all-time Grand Slam winners. 

Congrats, Serena!
