They’ve done it again.

Venus and Serena Williams won the 2016 Wimbledon doubles final Saturday, the 14th Grand Slam doubles championship of their careers.

The sisters defeated Timea Babos and Yaroslava Shvedova 6-3, 6-4 for their sixth doubles title at Wimbledon.

“I never want to make a mistake,” Venus said, via the BBC. “I don’t want to let Serena down. She brought the energy from the singles on to the doubles court.”

“It’s awesome to win another doubles at Wimbledon,” Serena added.

The win capped a tremendous day for Serena, who captured her 22nd Grand Slam singles title Saturday, as well.

The Williams sisters now trail just Martina Navratilova and Pam Schriver for most Grand Slam doubles titles as a pair in history.
