The Williams sisters were eliminated by the Czech pair of Lucie Hradecka and Linda Noskova at Flushing Meadows, leaving the court with hugs and a standing ovation.

Serena Williams says she is close to retirement. We take a look at her life and career from Compton to Wimbledon, and the impact she has had on athletes, particularly African American women.

According to multiple media outlets, Florida police have determined no one is to blame for the crash that killed an elderly man in June. The decision reverses their first call, which faulted Williams.

The footage shows a Palm Beach Gardens officer telling the tennis star he won't cite her: "You just got stuck in a bad situation." She is being sued for wrongful death of a man in the other vehicle.

Williams was unable to take advantage of early chances against Spain's Garbiñe Muguruza — who only grew more accurate and confident as the match progressed.

Either star could be the oldest Wimbledon winner of the Open era, and Williams could claim oldest Grand Slam title. Williams, 37, faces off with Garbine Muguruza; Federer, 35, plays Marin Cilic.

"This year's been amazing," Venus Williams says after reaching her second Grand Slam final of the 2017 season.

Florida police have retracted their original statement that said the tennis player was at fault for the June 9 car accident that resulted in a passenger's death. Blame has not been determined.

Police in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., say Venus Williams was at fault in a June 9 car crash that led to the death of the passenger in another vehicle. Jerome Barson, 78, died two weeks later.
