During the numerous battles the sister duo encountered against each other, it was Serena who toppled Venus on most occasions. Their last, significant tie-up came during the finals of 2017 Australian Open, where the younger sister displayed true dominance to clinch her 23rd major title.
In comparison with Serena, Venus had a tumultuous career as she had to deal with multiple injuries on the women’s rooster. Since 2018, her form hasn’t been consistent but the American looks to bounce back at one tournament or the other next year.
