Venus has not won a Grand Slam title outside of Wimbledon since 2001, when she won her second U.S. Open championship in a row. She last made the final at Flushing Meadows in 2002, when she lost to sister Serena. Maybe tennis is not that important anymore now that the Williams sisters bought a small stake in the NFL’s Miami Dolphins.

Odds are pretty good that either Venus or Serena will be winning this year's title. But there is no way they will meet in the final since they are on the same side of the draw.
