From the time each was just six years old, Venus and Serena Williams have been
playing tennis. The dynamic duo has come a long way since first stepping onto
the court: They've won tournaments and Olympic gold medals, and also attracted
their share of controversy -- usually involving their notoriously outspoken
father, Richard. With 13 grand slam titles between them, however, the Williams
sisters are stamping out their place in tennis
history.CNNSI.com celebrates the careers of Venus and Serena with a comprehensive
scrapbook, which includes a timeline and a compilation of SI
