It was inevitable after such an energetic performance in her second-round win over Stefanie Voegele at the Australian Open that Venus Williams would get asked about transcending the generations in tennis. The sisters have won 14 Grand Slam doubles titles together, including four at the Australian Open. Venus Williams put plenty into her second-round singles match, which lasted 1 hour, 23 minutes. Venus is playing her 17th Australian Open, but has never won the title. On the men's side, fifth-ranked Kei Nishikori reached the third round with a 6-3, 6-4, 6-3 win over Jeremy Chardy.
