Serena Williams is now two rounds 

One simple hug between two sisters, lasting no more than 15 seconds on a tennis court, gave the sport in America more warmth, joy and life than any man has in the last 15 years. Warm enough to bring everyone from a presidential candidate (Donald Trump) in the first row of Arthur Ashe to the common voter in the upper reaches of the stadium to their feet.

But more than anything else, when Venus Williams, 35, held little sister Serena, 33, within her arms and whispered ‘I’m so happy for you’, it gave America hope. So much so that Serena would go on to sum up tonight’s contribution to the game in one, spectacular line. “I think it’s the greatest story in tennis,” she said.
