Venus...champion for the 5th time...

Winning the doubles...

Sisters Venus and Serena met in their 7th grand slam final. This time, Venus prevailed. Strange that she always shines at the biggest stage, and loses quite tamely at smaller events. Venus gets her 5th Wimbledon and 7th grand slam(GS) overall as she denies Serena of her 3rd Wimbledon and 9th GS.

Talk of their decline were brushed aside as they trashed most of their opponents. The rising Russians and Serbs were vanquished and the Williams remain a force not to be overlooked. At 28 and 26, their best seemed to be a thing of the past. However, over this fortnight, they showed everybody why they remain the players to beat. My opinion is, they are the best players of the last decade.

Winning the doubles title is just the perfect demonstration as why they are so good, anywhere!
