We look to the Williams sister, Venus and Serena to last in tennis for years just like senior Billy Jean King. But it may not happen with the 32 years old Venus, who has five Wimbledon titles and seven grand slams. Venus may be the first of the sister to leave the tennis courts for good. Venus suffers from the autoimmune disease Sjogren's syndrome, which can cause extreme fatigue and joint pain. The disease may have helped Elena Vesnina of Russia, 6-1, 6-3, to a quick victory defeating the eldest Williams sister.But the defeat did not keep Venus off the court for long, the next day she joined her sibling Serena to play a doubles match. Venus would join Serena to enjoy a victory in the doubles beating Vesna Dolonc of Serbia and Olga Savchuk of Ukraine 6-0, 6-3 in the first match.The same day, the three-Peet Olympic gold medalist Venus was swallowed up to participate in the London Olympics 2012 to play both singles and doubles in July.Meanwhile The other half of the dynamic duo remains in the third round of the singles, dueling opponents for a victory, winning against Chinese player Zheng Jei 6-7, 6-2, 9-7 Serena battled to defeat Zahlavova Strycova of the Czech Republic 6-2 and 6-4 in the first round the singles. The second round defeat came to Hungarian Melinda Czink 6-1, 6-4. Serena is determined to sent Yaroslava Shvedova off the court with her aces. with a defeat in the fourth round of the single. Serena last won the singles in 2010, this win for 2012 will send a clear message that the young Williams sisters is In it to win it .
