WIMBLEDON, England – Just in case there were any doubts out there, Serena Williams wants to make perfectly clear that she’s going to be around tennis awhile longer. So is older sister Venus.

“I have no intention of stopping, and I don’t think she does either. We’re definitely connected at the hip,” the 30-year-old Williams said Saturday, two days before Wimbledon begins. “I enjoy being out there on the court so much.”

Asked what she likes most about tennis, Williams explained: “I love competing. I love the challenge. I love holding up trophies. So I guess if ever I feel that I can’t do that, then maybe I won’t play anymore.”
