After Serena Williams clinched her record-tying 22nd major title at Wimbledon on Saturday, BBC aired a goosebump-inducing montage to commemorate the incredible milestone.

Featuring footage of all her bouquet-toting finals entrances on Centre Court over the years, the video is set to Serena's reading of Maya Angelou's rousing, terrifically apt poem, "Still I Rise."

Just like moons and like suns,

With the certainty of tides,

Just like hopes springing high,

Still I rise.

Perfect.
