Williams Sisters Getting Real
Serena and Venus Williams will be starring in their version of a tennis reality show.
The sisters' off-court lives — their family, friends and the glamour of big-time tennis — will be featured in a six-episode show that is still untitled but set to premiere on the U.S cable network ABC Family in July, it was announced Monday.
"The series will provide our fans with an up-close, inside look at our lives away from the tennis courts," Venus Williams said.
The sisters have won 11 major single titles between them and are competing at the Nasdaq-100 Open in Key Biscayne, Florida. Serena is ranked No. 4 in the world and Venus is No. 9.
Serena Williams said she and her sister welcome the chance to "branch out into a new medium."
