It's cool, but they tend to be rather ... boring, when playing each other because they know the games of each other so very well.
I think the Williams women are amazing, and I am a big fan myself.

I guess I probably agree, since I didn't automatically think "wow, I can't wait to see that!" But, I am very, very happy for them. Everything was against them even playing tennis at all, growing up.

I admire them enormously. Theirs is a story unlike any other in sport.

In a way I'm sorry they're playing each other in the final. The last time it happened it was a bit of an anticlimax.
On the other hand they've earned it. No-one else this year has been in the same league.
