SISTER WHACKED
Seventeen-year-old Venus stretches to reach the ball
played by 16-year-old Serena at the Australian Open
– the first professional clash between the Williams
sisters. Over their incredible career, they’ve notched
30 Grand Slam wins and eight Olympic gold
medals between them. The pair faced off again
at the 2017 Australian Open, which Serena
won while eight weeks pregnant.
