Venus and Serena Williams will meet in the Wimbledon finals for the third time after they both completed straight sets victories over Elena Dementieva and Zheng Zie, respectively.  This matchup will mark the seventh sister vs sister grand slam final but the first since 2003.  The Williams sisters, who despite their relatively low rankings were the odds on favorites to reach the final, have not dissappointed, dominating on their way to the final match. 

Serena holds an 8-7 career advantage over Venus, but what is even more important, is that she is 5-1 all time in Grand Slam finals.  However, Venus has not dropped a set in five matches and is clearly playing at the top of her game.  Personally, I look forward to the matchup and hope the sisters can put on a great show.  The time of the match is still yet to be determined.
