LONDON, England - It's the match everyone was waiting for when the draw came
out, and it's now a reality - two of the greatest legends in women's tennis,
the Williams sisters, will square off in the round of 16 at Wimbledon on
Monday. It could be epic - first, watch highlights from their last meeting
above...
... and now let's get ready for the newest chapter of their epic rivalry with
10 Things To Know!
(1) Serena Williams (USA #1) vs (16) Venus Williams (USA #16)
Head-To-Head: Serena leads Venus, 14-11
對戰紀錄：小威 14-11 領先
1) Serena doesn't just lead the head-to-head, she leads the Grand Slam
head-to-head.
Serena doesn't just lead the overall head-to-head, 14-11, she leads the Grand
Slam head-to-head, 7-5. That's 1-1 at the Australian Open, 1-0 at the French
Open, 3-2 at Wimbledon and 2-2 at the US Open.
1) 小威不僅對戰紀錄領先，於大滿貫對戰紀錄亦領先。
共 7-5
澳網 1-1
法網 1-0
溫網 3-2
美網 2-2
2) But the earlier in the Grand Slam, the better it is for Venus.
Broken down a different way, Serena's 7-5 lead in Grand Slams could favor
Venus here. Serena is 6-2 against Venus in major finals, meaning Venus is 3-1
against Serena in majors before the final.
2) 但越早碰頭，對大威有利。
大滿貫決賽：小威 6-2 領先
大滿貫非決賽：大威 3-1 領先
3) Serena has only lost one match this year, and it wasn't to Venus.
Serena comes into this match with a sparkling 35-1 record on the year. The
only loss came to Petra Kvitova in the semifinals of the Mutua Madrid Open in
May, and it was by a 6-2, 6-3 scoreline too.
3) 目前為止，今年小威只敗一場。(35-1)
Kvitova於馬德里四強擊敗小威，6-2 6-3。
4) But Venus did win their last meeting...
Venus put on a performance for the ages at the Rogers Cup in Montréal last
summer, beating Serena in the semifinals, 6-7(2), 6-2, 6-3. It was her first
win over a No.1 since here at Wimbledon in 2009.
4) 大威上次有贏
去年加拿大(蒙特婁)四強，大威勝，6-7(2) 6-2 6-3。
於此前，上一次大威擊敗世界第一：
2009 溫網四強：6-1 6-0 擊敗 Safina
5) ... and Venus could easily be leading the overall head-to-head, 13-12.
In two of Serena's 14 wins over Venus, Venus actually had match point - at
Bangalore in 2008 and the WTA Finals in 2009. If Venus had converted those,
she'd be leading the overall head-to-head, 13-12.
5) 先前可能是大威以 13-12 領先
大威在 2008班加洛 及 2009 年終 曾握有賽末點。
6) Serena is playing on a new breath of life after a major third round scare.
WTA Rising Star Heather Watson had Serena on the ropes in the last round - up
3-0 third set, points for 4-0, even served for it at 5-4 and got within two
points of winning. But Serena won, 6-2, 4-6, 7-5.
6) 小威第三輪驚魂
Watson於決勝盤握有 3-0 領先，5-4 發球局，距勝利2分之遙。
但最後小威勝出，6-2 4-6 7-5。
7) The first set could be critical.
The winner of the first set has won 21 of their 25 meetings. And the
comebacks are evenly split, too - Serena has rallied from a set down to win
twice, and Venus has rallied from a set down to win twice.
7) 第一盤可能為關鍵
先前25次交手，有21次是取得第一盤的勝方最終獲勝。
丟第一盤後趕兩盤的紀錄各2次。
8) Venus has beaten World No.1s before - many, many times before.
Venus has 14 career wins over World No.1s - that's eight against Martina
Hingis, two each against Lindsay Davenport and Serena, and one each against
Jelena Jankovic and Dinara Safina.
8) 大威擊敗世界第一數次
14次。分別為
Hingis 8次
Davenport 2次
小威 2次
Jankovic 1次
Safina 1次
9) Only one pair has played each other more times in Grand Slams than Serena
and Venus.
This will be the 13th Grand Slam meeting between the Williams sisters. Only
one pair has played each other more times at Grand Slams in the Open Era -
Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova (22 times).
9) 只有一組於大滿貫交手次數多於大威小威
Evert v. Navratilova：22次
10) Combined, the Williams sisters have made more than $100 million in prize
money. Really.
Serena ($69,676,428) and Venus ($30,781,158) are first and third on the
all-time prize money list, and combined that's $100,457,586. Who's second?
None other than Maria Sharapova ($35,071,334).
10) 大威小威已獲得獎金加總超過1億美金
小威 $69,676,428 (現役第一)
莎娃 $35,071,334 (現役第二)
大威 $30,781,158 (現役第三)
