Been watching alot of the tennis. Serena was on fire in her semi - when she plays like that no one can touch her. I hope Venus plays well - it would be a great swansong for her to win.

Would be great to see Federer be really aggressive against Nadal but his backhand doesn't matchup well to Nadal's forehand. Looking forward to a great final - could be a long one!

The last time was in 2009 The Wimbeldon Final. Serena won 7–6(3), 6–2. A year before that Venus beat Serena at The Wimbeldon Final and the score was 7-5, 6-4 winning her 7th Grand Slam. Serena has 22 Single Grand Slams.

Congratulations to both women. Serena won the match, but it's awesome to see Venus in the finals with her.

30 (!!) Singles Slams between them and counting :faint:

Oh and they just collected more than 4 million dollars for hitting a little green ball over the net for the last two weeks. I don't think they are going anywhere at least for a few more years yet - enjoy them while you can because you won't see another pair of sisters dominate like they have in this lifetime. The rest of the tour are going to have to step it up!

Where would American tennis be without the Williams sisters, yet some still hate on them.

Tonight's Men's final will be totally awesome biggrin and I think Serena will break Australia's Margeret Court's record of 24 Single Grand Slams this year if she can stay healthy nod

Do some people actually hate them? I would have thought that all four finalists are amongst the best liked sports people in the world! Anyway, it would have been great for Venus to win. And good luck Rafa (but no problem is Federer wins)
