Two-time Family Circle Cup champion Serena Williams advanced swiftly to the final today when she defeated her Venus Williams 6-1, 6-2 in 54 minutes. Today's match marked the 24th time the sisters have played each other, and Serena now leads their head-to-head 14-10. This was the first time Venus and Serena have ever played each other in Charleston, and the first time they have played each other in four years.

In today's match, Venus had difficulty with her serve--especially her second serve. She double-faulted eight times. Both sisters played two matches yesterday because of Thursday's rain delay, and after today's semifinal, Serena said of Venus: "...she'll never admit it, ever, but I don't think she was a hundred percent. But you will never get that out of her, and quite frankly, three matches for her is much tougher than three matches for me...."
