Serena Williams still hungry for success after Wimbledon exit

The number one seed was dumped out in the third round for the first time since 2005 after surrendering a one-set lead to the Frenchwoman at the All England Club on Saturday.

Williams' loss means she has exited the first three major tournaments of the season before the quarter-final stage.

However, the American remains optimistic of adding to the 17 grand slam titles she has won in her career.

"It's something I'm obviously going to keep going for," Williams said. "It's definitely something in my mind, it's pretty important."

The 32-year-old believes her poor record at the slams this year can be attributed to other players upping their performance for the big occasions.

"I think everyone in general plays the match of their lives against me," she added. "I just have to always, every time I step on the court, be a hundred times better. If I'm not, then I'm in trouble."
