Re: It will be the first all-Williams final at any tournament since 2003, when Serena beat her older sister in the Wimbledon title match for the second year in a row. Serena will be going for her ninth Grand Slam title; Venus her seventh.
"It's definitely been a while," Serena said. "We've been on the same side of the draw a few times. It's good. This is a new start for us."
Said Venus: "It's every Williams for themself."
Serena holds an 8-7 career edge over Venus, including 5-1 in Grand Slam finals.
Since Venus won the U.S. Open in 2001, Serena has won all their major finals.

Venus hits record 127-mph serve at Wimbledon
WIMBLEDON, England (AP) ? No slow start for Venus Williams this time.
After struggling in tight first sets in her opening two matches, the defending champion moved quickly to defeat Spanish qualifier Maria Jose Martinez Sanchez 6-1, 7-5 Saturday and advance to the fourth round at Wimbledon.
Williams served out the match at love, finishing with a 127-mph delivery ? the fastest recorded by a woman at Wimbledon ? for her 11th ace.

With that being said, I think Venus will "kick Sarena's butt".
