Serena Williams defeats her big sister Venus Williams who suffered from an abdominal strain in three sets 4-6 6-4 6-2. Although Venus Williams was having trouble serving and playing her normal game she managed to win the first set against her little sister Serena.

In the second set Serena took a 5-1 lead. With Serena serving for the set Venus broke her sisters serve, held her own and came back to 5-4.
Serena however held her serve for 6-4.

The third set ended 6-2 for Serena who didn’t show much happiness after she won the last point. The smiles came when both sisters were sitting next to each other waiting for the celebrations. Venus handed over her camera to one of the club officials to take a picture of the moment.
