Tennis fan Chirag Mansukhani got his dose of quality tennis at the 2010 Australian Open Womens Doubles finals as the Williams sisters won yet another Grand Slam together. Here is what he had to say.

The Williams sisters’ notched up yet another Grand Slam Doubles title when they defeated the top seeds Cara Black and Liezel Huber in straight sets 6-4 6-3. The pair of Black and Huber has never defeated the Wailliams' sisters and this time they failed to break their duck yet again.

It was a fairly easy match for the sisters as they dominated the game with their power and some amazing angles. It was their fourth Australian Open Doubles success and their eleventh grand slam doubles title!

The Serena and Venus dominated the match from the beginning, giving their opponents little chance to find their way into the match. The Williams' sisters were in control throughout the match as they cruised to victory. What added to their joy was that they not only enjoyed being on court with each other but also enjoy their road to triumph together.

Aggressive tennis and powerful strokes have made them one of the most dominating pairs in Women’s tennis and a pure delight to watch.  Though interestingly at the post match celebrations, kid sister Serena forgot to thank her own elder sister. One would assume that after winning 17 titles together, she would remember her partner/elder sister.

Serena now looks set to defend her Single’s crown after her Doubles triumph which would make this Slam doubly special for her.
