Wimbledon Final: Williams sisters reach Wimbledon doubles final
Venus and Serena Williams reached the final of the women’s doubles for a second successive year on Friday.
Venus and Serena defeated top seeds Cara Black and America’s Liezel Hueber 6-1, 6-2.
They will face Australian pair Samantha Stosur and Rennae Stubbs, the third seeds, who defeated Spain’s Anabel Medina Garrigues and Virginia Ruano Pascual 6-7 (3/7), 6-4, 6-2, in Sunday’s final.
Venus denied that the tournament was becoming too easy for them.
“Serena had a very tough competitor yesterday (a three-set semi-final win over Elena Dementieva where she saved a match point). I’ve had to stay on my A game to defeat each competitor,” said the five-time singles champion.
“And, of course, in the doubles together we’ve been so focused, and that’s really been the key word this Championship. Our focus has paid off so far.”
