Serena, who already holds a 16-11 edge over her sister, could be the fresher player, too, on Saturday. “When I’m playing on the court with her, I think I’m playing the best competitor in the game,” Venus said. Saturday’s final in Melbourne could be intriguing on multiple levels, in part because of the Australian public. It was a moment she described as “just joy.”“You could really see the happiness on her face,” Serena said. “I think why people love sport so much is because you see everything in a line,” Venus said.
