Serena and Venus Williams win again at Wimbeldon
American tennis stars Venus and Serena Williams have both qualified for the Wimbledon quarter-finals by gaining respective victories against Ana Ivanovic and Daniela Hantuchova.
Venus Williams was already in the lead by 6-1 1-0 against her opponent when Ivanovic was forced to retire with a groin problem, although she had been treated for it.
Venus Williams next goes forward to face Agnieszka Radwanska, who had defeated 17-year-old Melanie Oudin 6-4 7-5.
Serena Williams beat Daniela Hantuchova with a 6-3 6-1 victory in only 56 minutes on Court Two and has qualified to next take on Victoria Azarenka who had beaten Nadia Petrova.
Venus Williams now holds an impressive 18-match winning streak at Wimbledon.
Venus Williams has now become the winner of 30 sets in a row at Wimbledon, and this run of success dates back as far as her third-round game against Akiko Morigami back in 2007.
