July 4, 2009 Serena wins another all-Williams final Play video

(NECN/NBC: Wimbledon, England) - It was another of the vaunted sister versus sister tennis final matches between Serena and Venus Williams on Saturday at Wimbledon.

Serena claimed her third Wimbledon championship and 11th major title by defeating Venus 7-6 (3), 6-2.

Serena will be ranked No. 2 in the world on Monday, followed by Venus at No. 3. Claiming the top spot is Dinara Safina, a 6-1, 6-0 loser to Venus in the semifinals. Safina is (0-3) in major finals.

"If you hold three Grand Slam titles, maybe you should be No. 1, but not on the WTA Tour, obviously," Serena said. Then, alluding sarcastically to two less-than-major events won by Safina, Serena doubled over in laughter after saying: "I see myself as No. 2. That's where I am. I think Dinara did a great job to get to No. 1. She won Rome and Madrid."

Serena leads her sister in Grand Slam titles (11-7), in head-to-head matches (11-10), and in all-Williams major finals (6-2).
