All eyes were on the top-seeded Serena Williams this weekend at the Australian Open. First she got her yoga on, showing off her flexibility while stretching. Later on was the actual show where the tennis superstar advanced with a three-set victory over Garbine Muguruza, sending her to the quarterfinals.
Younger sister, Serena Williams, was supporting and cheering for Venus from the stands at Rod Laver Arena, just hours after she had to dig deep for a 2-6, 6-3, 6-2 comeback win over Garbine Muguruza on the same court.
Venus Williams continued her impressive career resurgence at the Australian Open with a 6-3, 2-6, 6-1 win over sixth-seeded Agnieszka Radwanska on Monday night, reaching the last eight at a major for the first time since the 2010 U.S. Open.
The sisters haven’t both advanced this far at a major since Serena won Wimbledon in 2010, their careers seemingly veering off at opposite trajectories.
