The Williams sisters will contest their first grand slam final since Wimbledon in 2009, which Serena won in two sets. Serena and Venus Williams rolled back the years as they swept through their last four clashes to set up a retro family final at the Australian Open on Thursday, their ninth meeting in a grand slam title-decider. "For us both to be in the final is the biggest dream come true for us," said Serena, a year her sister's junior. I just feel like no matter what's happened we've both won ... A Williams is going to win this tournament." Vandeweghe was visibly upset at losing her first grand slam semi-final, indulging in a "feel-sorry-for-myself moment" as she described it.
