Inching closer
The Williams sisters domination continued today, as Serena ran through her opponent almost as quickly as Venus ( 1 hour, six minutes). S-Will beat 30th-ranked Japanese veteran Ai Sugiyama 6-2, 6-1. Gotta wonder how much Sugiyama's legs/endurance factored into her loss, as she also entered in mixed doubles and women's doubles this tournament. Serena's win inches the two closer to a US Open matchup. If both win during their fourth round opponents, they'll meet in the quarterfinals. Shame they have to meet so early.
