THETHINGS VIDEO OF THE DAY
The sports world was graced with the presence of sisters Venice Williams and Serena Williams in 1994 and 1995. After the two turned pro at the young age of 14 years old, they rose up the ranks of the tennis realm in a matter of years.
When it comes to being closely associated with your sibling in a profession, it’s hard to escape the comparisons that come. For instance, take sister duo Chlöe Bailey and Halle Bailey, who are both part of the music and entertainment industry. The two sisters are compared frequently (with Chlöe Bailey coming forth with annoyance, pleading for the world to stop). Or take twin sisters Tia Mowry and Tamera Mowry-Housely, for example. They grew up in the entertainment industry together after appearing on the hit show Sister, Sister, and although the two have a close relationship, their individual endeavors are continuously compared to one another.
With this inevitability in full tow, it brings us to examine how Serena Williams compares to that of her older sister Venus Williams. According to a study conducted by Spin Genie, Serena Williams is more successful than Venus. Let’s take a look at how they came to this conclusion.
