Looks like there is nothing but love between Serena and Venus Williams.
The famous sisters battled it out on the iconic Wimbledon’s Centre Court in London on Monday where Serena defeated Venus 6-4, 6-3, notes Huffington Post, sending her into the Wimbledon quarterfinals.
Serena opened up about her big win in an interview with the BBC where she admitted that “it definitely doesn’t get easier” when it comes to playing her sister.
“It’s hard to feel exciting about [beating] someone you root for all the time,” she explained. “But today I was out there and I just thought, ‘Wow, I’m 33, and she just turned 35, I don’t know how many more moments like this we’ll have.”
The star also reflected on how grateful she was to share the court with her big sister.
“I just took the moment in and I thought, ‘We’re at Wimbledon,’ she recalled. “I remember when I was 8 years old, we dreamed of this moment and it was kind of surreal for a minute there.”
This match marks the 26th time the two tennis stars have played each other throughout their careers and their sixth Wimbledon Meeting.
Serena took to Instagram to share a heartwarming message to her sister following their match, showing how strong their sisterly bond is.
“There’s nothing I would not do for this brave inspirational woman,” she wrote. “How fortunate I am to have u as my sister.”
