William’s sisters won Wimbledon doubles women title

Serena Williams followed up her historic Wimbledon singles title triumph with her sister in another doubles title, defeating Yaroslava Shvedova and Timea Babos 6-3 6-4.

•    The sisters secured the crucial break at 4-3 in the opening set and Serena slammed away a smash to put them a set up. 
•    It was Shvedova and Babos that took the early initiative, breaking to grab a 3-2 lead in the opening set. 
•    But the Williams sisters immediately upped their intensity to break straight back and, despite a couple of minor scares, were never broken again in an attractive doubles match that dazzled with highlight-reel rallies into the early evening.
•    The victory sealed an incredible sixth doubles title for the dominant sisters at Wimbledon, the pair having previously won in 2000, 2002, 2008, 2009 and 2012. 
•    It is also their 14th major doubles title and only Martina Navratilova and Pam Shriver have won more.
