Marion Bartoli has admitted that she "cannot believe" her victory over Sabine Lisicki in the Wimbledon final.

The French world number 15 capped an incredible run at the tournament with an emphatic 6-1 6-4 triumph in the final on Saturday.

The win has seen Bartoli clinch the first Grand Slam title of her career.

"Holding this trophy has been my dream since I was six years old," she told BBC Sport. "I cannot believe it and I hope to do my best again next year."

Bartoli's previous appearance in the Wimbledon final was a loss to Venus Williams in 2007.
