体育明星
维纳斯·威廉斯和莎莲娜·威廉斯是姐妹。她们也是常常不得不互为对手的网球冠军。维纳斯现在排名世界第十一位,而妹妹莎莲娜已经跃居第三位。
两姐妹出生于加利福尼亚州一个贫穷、危险的地区——毒品、暴力随处可见。在最近一次采访中,维纳斯说,那时,她和莎莲娜正在进行网球训练,当子弹从空中飞来时,她们只得跑开并藏起来。最后在1991年,姐妹俩随同家人一起搬到了一个比较安全的地区,从此再也没有回去过。
当维纳斯和莎莲娜还是小孩子的时候,她们的父亲理查德就开始训练她们。他对女儿总是非常严厉,并严格训练她们,要她们互相竞争。妈妈布兰迪则在家中教两姐妹文化知识,这样一来她们在继续网球生涯的同时也完成了高中学业。如今两姐妹在大学学习设计。她们俩都对网球生涯结束后从事设计工作极感兴趣。
两姐妹的成功之路是令人惊叹的。维纳斯第一次参加大型赛事是在1996年。从那以后她已经两次赢得温布尔登网球公开赛和美国网球公开赛。莎莲娜不断提高,取得了惊人的进步。1999年及2002年,她两次赢得美国网球公开赛。2002年及2003年,她是温布尔登网球公开赛女子单打冠军。网球是否影响过她们的姐妹关系呢?很幸运,没有。维纳斯说:“我们以前彼此较量过,但从未产生过不愉快的感觉,”莎莲娜开玩笑地说:“如果她赢了,妈妈会让她洗碗。”
