  • Serena and Venus Williams
    The Williams sisters with their respective wommen's doubles trophy at Wimbledon.

    The most entertaining point of the match came with Stubbs serving at 1-1 in the second set. Serena returned the serve, and Stubbs swung her racket behind her and hit the ball through her legs to get it back over. "I do that because sometimes you have to do that," said Stubbs, who added that she makes that kind of shot all the time. "That's just experience and being an idiot on the court half the time." As the point continued, Stosur stood at the net and battered back volley after volley as both Venus and Serena grunted and groaned while sending groundstrokes back over the net. Stosur eventually won the point with a drop shot neither sister could get near, and the Australian took that game. But the sisters broke Stubbs to go up 4-3 in that set and kept control. "I'm really excited to have doubles titles," Serena said. "I rack 'em up."
