Which player did Serena Williams defeat in the 2015 French Open women's singles final?

Serena Williams defeated Lucie Šafářová in the 2015 French Open women's singles final.

Williams won the Roland-Garros final on June 6, 2015, overcoming the Czech left-hander 6–3, 6–7 (2–7), 6–2. Šafářová, seeded 13th, was playing in her first Grand Slam singles final and pushed the world No. 1 into a deciding set.

The victory gave Williams her third French Open singles title, following her championships in 2002 and 2013. It was also her 20th Grand Slam singles title, making her only the third woman in the Open Era to reach that total at the time.

The final is sometimes remembered less clearly because Šafářová had already produced major upsets during the tournament, including wins over Maria Sharapova and Garbiñe Muguruza. Williams's victory also completed her third Career Grand Slam, meaning she had won all four major tournaments at least once.
