2013 Family Circle Cup - Semifinals features Williams VS. Williams

Serena Williams prepares to volley on Friday
Venus Williams returns serve on her way to the semis
The sister act of the WTA Tour is playing head to head on Saturday March 6 at the Family Circle Cup. The top seed Serna Williams will face off against sister Venus Williams (5th seed) at 1 p.m. on the stadium court. This will mark the 24th time that the Williams sisters have gone head to head, but it will for the first time at the FCC. The second semifinal match will follow with 9th seed Jelena Jancovic versus Stefanie Voegele. Friday's playing conditions varied from cloudy and cool, and then to warm and sunny during the afternoon. In particular the play in the Lucie Safarova VS. Soran Cirsteau afternoon match was crisp and compelling - with Safarova the winner. Playing in their second match of the day on Friday, due to rain delays on Thursday, it was Serena Williams who eliminated Safarova later in the day.
