As you can see in the above tweet, Alexis Ohanian finds the Williams vs Williams matches very stressful. This is probably because he is very close to both of them and he doesn’t want anybody to lose. Unfortunately for him, he will probably have to deal with the stress again as they might meet again at the US Open.

Even though many players have pulled out of the event, both the Williams’ sisters have confirmed their participation. And they both have decided to take part in the tournament because they have the same goal – winning another Grand Slam.

Ever since she returned in 2018, Serena Williams has been trying to win another Slam so that she can equal Magaret Court’s All-time record. She did manage to reach 4 finals but she sadly lost all of them. Now, she is going to be a lot more focused so she can win the US Open this year.

On the other hand, Venus is going to want to win another Grand Slam as she has not won one in a long time. Her last Major title came at the 2008 Wimbledon where she beat her sister in straight sets.
