The Williams sisters are understandably the best players in the tennis world at the moment but can they meet in Wimbledon Final, they met in the French Open Final 3 weeks ago so they proved it's been done. Only time will tell.

The Williams Sisters have met in 2 of the last 3 Grand Slam Finals can they keep the band wagon rolling or can a upset in the early stages sabotage their hopes of dominating Wimbledon, something Venus has done for the last two years.

The injury prone sisters can pick up and injury even picking up their luggage. And tennis fans will know what happened in Australia with Venus and Serena the previous week in Sydney.

The defending champion will take on a future British prospect Jane O'Donoghue who is 18 years old and threatens in todays British press to give Venus the scare of her life and will be happy to take a set of the World Number 1.

Fresh French Open Champion Serena Williams takes on Evie Dominikovic who gave Capriati a little scare at the French Open couple weeks ago. She has a big serve and also powerful groundstrokes. Who knows what could happen in the first round, with Martina Hingis not here this year to go out in the first round perhaps someone else is destined to follow her footsteps.

Venus and Serena have a fair draw at Wimbledon, normally they face opponents who are qualifiers or just aren't capable of playing tennis at a high level which sees them make the latter stages. The draw brings some tough tasks for both of these to overcome, Hantuchova, Dokic and Clijsters are all Quarterfinal threats for the Williams to overcome.

We will all see within the next 24 hours who will survive the first round tomorrow and Tuesday which sees Venus take Centre Court. If a all Williams final is going to happen then I can guarantee a long battle from both sisters.
