SERENA SERVES IT, EARNS SPOT IN WIMBLEDON FINALS

 Though she and sister Venus were upset in the Wimbledon doubles quarterfinals match on Wednesday, Serena Williams earned a spot in the Wimbledon Finals yesterday (her 6th) after overpowering Petra Kvitova for a 7-6 (2), 6-2 win. The girl is fierce, what else is there to say? Oh, and regarding that doubles defeat, the sisters were fined $4000 each for not showing up to interviews, which is required... if requested. Gangstaaa.

VENUS WILLIAMS IS OUT, WHILE SISTER SERENA MOVES AHEAD TO 4TH ROUND AT WIMBLEDON

The Williams sisters are still holding it down, except this time 5x Wimbledon champ Venus is out of the running for her 6th title after her loss against bulgarian Tsvetana Pironkova, 22. It was close though at 6-3, 6-2 after a 1 hour and 25 minute battle. 

 On the other hand, sister Serena won her 3rd round match 6-0 to 7-5 against Slovakia's Dominika Cibulko on Saturday. Reportedly she shrugged her shoulders after her win seemingly unsatisfied and said..."I will have to play better than I did today." And, that's the way champions roll. [L.A. Times]
