The Williams sisters Serena & Venus will Play each Other for the sixth time at the grass-court Grand Slam in southwest London today Monday 7th/06/2015. The Americans female tennis players have both won five Wimbledon singles titles & between them shares an amazing 27Grand Slam titles.
Individually and together, the Williams sisters have become two of the greatest champions at the All England Club.
Head-to-Head on the grass at Wimbledon, Serena leads 3-2, with all three of her wins coming in finals. Venus won one final, and also won a semifinal match against her younger sibling in 2000 – the first time they met on court at the tournament.
Speaking to the press, this is what Serena said about Venus
“She’s my sister today, she’s my sister next week, she’s my sister next year: I think that’s a little more important than a match.“It’s unfortunate that it’s so soon in the tournament, but we’re going to do the best that we can. We’ll leave everything out on the court. When it’s done we’ll go back to regular life.“I expect more people to be rooting for Venus. I would be rooting for Venus. She’s been through so much. She’s been so inspiring to me and to a lot of people with the same things that she goes through. She’s just an incredible individual.“I just don’t know how I’m going to do, to be honest. I’m playing the toughest player I’ve played in women’s tennis.”
Venus on Serena
“There’s no easy points against Serena. No matter how Serena’s playing, she knows how to win.“I’ll probably be cheering for her. No matter what she’s been through, she’s never complained.“You see players that continue to talk about injuries that are like 9,000 years old.“She never complained once. You have to give her credit for that. She’s gone through so much that no one could even imagine.”
