Beginning with the 2002 French Open, the Williams Sisters, Venus and Serena, played each other in four consecutive Grand Slam Tennis singles finals, which was the first time in the open era that the same two players competed in four consecutive Grand Slam finals. The pair have won 12 Grand Slam doubles titles together. Serena is the first player, male or female, to win 5 Australian Open titles during the open era.
