The last time both the sisters played together in a doubles competition was at the 2019 French Open. They ended up losing the contest to Andreja Klepac and Maria Jose Martinez Sanchez in three sets.
Even though both the sisters will be playing for different reasons next year on the WTA tour, there is always a possibility of them pairing up to play doubles at any one of the grand slams.

With both the sisters ending their 2021 season on disappointing note, next year gives some hope especially for Serena Williams to win her 24th major title, starting at the Australian Open.
The American did put up an impressive performance in Melbourne this year by reaching the semis, where she lost to Naomi Osaka.
Coming to Venus, the seven-time Grand Slam champion will look to win as many matches as possible just to keep her passion for the sport going before calling it a day.
