Wimbledon 2017: Women's Final Schedule, Prediction and Prize Money

Venus Williams has discovered exciting form at Wimbledon 2017 and will face Garbine Muguruza in the women's singles final in London on Saturday.

The winner will take home £2.2 million in prize money if they prevail at the All England Club, according to Wimbledon.com.

Williams is seeking her sixth Wimbledon title and appears in the final for the first time since 2009.

Muguruza lost in the final of Wimbledon 2015, and she will be hoping to avoid similar disappointment this time around.

Here is how you can watch the match:

Date: Saturday, July 16

Time: 2 p.m. BST/9 a.m. ET

TV: BBC (UK), ESPN (U.S.)

Stream: BBC iPlayer (UK), WatchESPN (U.S.)

Prediction

Both players have breezed into contention at the lawn-tennis tournament, working their way through the rounds with efficiency.

Williams has recaptured the championship form that has seen her win five Grand Slam titles at Wimbledon, and she has become a favourite of the English crowd.

The legend defeated sister Serena Williams in her last Wimbledon title triumph in 2008, but she has recently found renewed vigour in her results.

Wimbledon quoted Venus as she looked forward to her challenge:

At 23, Muguruza has a glittering career ahead of her, but Venus proved against Johanna Konta how vital her experience is.

The rising Spanish starlet has already won the 2016 French Open, and her style suits the grass courts.

However, she'll need some solid tactics to be at her best against her older and wiser opponent, and she will be forced to match her power and accuracy to stay in touch.

Muguruza was ranked No. 2 in the world in 2016, but her consistency has collapsed in the past 12 months.

Her stock had fallen in recent times, but her form in London has once again propelled her into the spotlight.

Muguruza needs to put Venus under pressure from the opening shot and make sure her age advantage pays dividends.

Venus' fitness cannot be doubted, but if her opponent fights hard and comes out punching, the outcome could be a surprise result.

The Caracas-born talent has the flair to beat the American, but the veteran will be ready after defeating Konta with ease.

The Brit is ranked higher than Muguruza, yet Venus was able to disarm her in front of her home fans.

Venus knows she is facing a player with tremendous power, but her serve could be the difference in the final.

The American's serve into the body caused Konta multiple issues in the semi-finals, and she could repeat its success against Muguruza.

Result Prediction: Venus to win in three sets.
