The Williams sisters make up and break up @ Wimbledon

First they’ll be playing against each other at the Centre Court, trying to beat each other for the prestigious Wimbledon women singles title, which is their 7th all-in-the-family final at a Grand Slam tournament, but first since 2003.

Then they’ll pair up to play side-by-side in the women’s doubles final. “This is what we’ve been aiming for,” Venus said. “We haven’t reached this achievement in a few years now.”

Venus is chasing for her fifth Wimbledon championship and second in a row. The last woman to successfully defend her title at the All England Club is Serena, who won the tournament in 2002 and 2003, beating Venus in each final.

Currently, Serena holds a 5-1 edge in Grand Slam finals, and 8-7 overall.

My bet would be on Venus winning it back to back at the Wimbledon Championship.

Quote of the day: All eyes on China's Zheng Jie

"China has quite a lot of sports in which they lead the world."
~ Zheng Jie

Zheng Jie, might lost to Serena Williams but I bet that will not be the last time we hear from her.

She is probably now China's best bet in the upcoming Olympics tennis. There were about 100 millions people in China who watched her match against Nicole Vaidisova, so image the number of people who will keep an eye on her in the Olympics.

Hope that's not a burden though.

Federer, Nadal and Safin move on into the semifinals

I was really disappointed with the rain delay last night because that means the quarterfinals will end very late at night.

I dozed off again while waiting for Rafael Nadal vs Andy Murray match. I woke up half way of the match and saw Nadal leading by 2 sets. It was 4.50 a.m. So I guessed Nadal was already in a safe position, it was okay for me to go back to sleep, in bed.

With Marat Safin moving on into the semifinal to meet Roger Federer after defeated hottie Feliciano Lopez, I assume it's going to be an interesting match between the former world no. 1 and the current world no.1 this coming Friday. However, with the way Federer is playing here in Wimbledon, one can only say that the top seed is already halfway booking a place into the final.

And I can confidently say that Nadal will get his chance to clinch his first Wimbledon, whether his opponent is Arnaud Clement or Rainer Schuettler (whose match was suspended last night).

Fast forward to Sunday I can't wait for the men's final...

In the meanwhile, I'm looking forward to tonight's women semifinals.

Arnaud Clement sticks to his trademark bandana

The pictures say it all. And it seems that his 'friend' Nolwenn Leroy shares the same interest too.
