As expected, Venus and Serena Williams will face off against each other in the Wimbledon final after each sister won their semifinals match on Thursday.

“All I know is a Williams is going to win,” said the sisters’ father, Richard.

The match will be the eighth meeting between the sisters in a Grand Slam title match, and their 4th in the Wimbledon finals.

“The more we play, the better it gets,” Serena said. “When we play our match on Saturday, you know, it’s for everything. This is what we dreamed of when we were growing up in Compton 20-something years ago. This is what we worked for, and this is what we want. Like I wanted her to win today and she wanted me to win today. It’s all come down to this.”

Venus was happy to see Serena make it into the finals, but don’t don’t expect her to take it easy on little sis.

“I’m happy for her to be in the final, but I have to face her and defeat her,” Venus said. “I don’t necessarily want her to lose, but for sure I want me to win. I don’t want to see myself disappointed. I need to get my titles, too. I’m still the big sister, but I’m still going to play great tennis.”

Saturday will be an exciting day for ladies tennis.
