Williams Sisters Set Sights on Olympic Gold
Jul 9th, 2008 by Bilal Ali

Venus Williams defeated her younger sister, Serena on Saturday to defend her Wimbledon title and then the two sisters joined forces a few hours later to take the Wimbledon Double title. Now Venus and Serena are gearing up to represent the United States in the Olympics in Beijing next month. They already have some gold from the 2000 Olympics but they want to add to their collection.”I love the Olympics,” Venus told Reuters. “To add to my medals is just, it would be amazing. I know I’ve got to work for it. It’s probably bigger than a slam, I think so, definitely. And you know how much I love Wimbledon, it’s bigger than Wimbledon.”
The tennis tournaments begin on August 10 with the finals going down on August 16 and 17. There’s no reason that the Williams sisters aren’t considered favorites to win gold, but on this platform they’re trying to prove that they’re the best in the word. Can they do it again?
