Serena and Venus Williams are getting their Sister Act back together for doubles at the U.S. Open.
Serena, who turns 41 next month, and Venus, who turned 42 in June, won women’s doubles championships at the U.S. Open in 1999 — the year Serena won her first major singles trophy at age 17 in New York — and 2009.
That’s all aside from their combined total of 30 major trophies in singles — 23 for Serena, and seven for Venus. She has gone 1-3 in singles in 2022, including a first-round loss at Wimbledon in June, and said less than three weeks ago that “the countdown has begun” to the close of her time as a professional player so she can focus on having another child and on her business interests.Article content
