It’s another sisters’ act again as Venus and Serena Williams are set to duel in the semi-final of the WTA Montreal tournament in Canada.

Serena struggled hard to beat Caroline Wozniacki in three sets, while Venus also defeated Spanish girl, Carla Suarez Navarro, in three sets.

Both sisters were expected to clash in Stanford, California last week, but Venus lost to Andrea  Petkovic in the quarter-finals, while Serena smashed everyone on her way and lifted the trophy.

The two sisters last met on clay court in Charleston, South Carolina in 2013 at the Family Circle Cup. It was their first matchup on clay since the 2002 French open finals. Serena went on to win the match; her fifth consecutive win against Venus.
