Here are the photos of Brooklyn Decker, Kim Sears, Bec Cartwright and Mirka Vavrinec supporting their husbands/boyfriends on Day Seven of the Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Championships at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club on June 28, 2010 in London, England. Enjoy!

Seventh-seeded Svetlana Kuznetsova, appearing in her fourth Grand Slam final defeated Dinara Safina 6-4 6-2 to win her second grand slam title.

“I have been waiting for this moment for a long time, losing to the winners,” said Kuznetsova when accepting the trophy. “I had been playing many matches, and this time it happened. Really, I didn’t expect it to happen this year,”

At age 19, Kuznetsova had captured the 2004 U.S. Open championship, also over another fellow Russian player, Elena Dementieva.

Safina who owns a remarkable 20-1 on clay this year, failed to control her emotions and continued to grope for form. She appeared near tears late in the match.

"I am in the same situation as last year," she told the 15,000 crowd. "Hopefully one day I can win here."

After thanking the crowd and her family, Kuznetsova praised her fellow countrywoman, Safina, and said that one day she would get that first major championship. “I guess today I played a little better,” she said. “I am sorry for that.”
