Venus and Serena Williams made Olympic history as they became the first pair to win the women's doubles three times. They beat Andrea Hlavackova and Lucie Hradecka of the Czech Republic 6-4 6-4. The sisters first won the doubles at Sydney in 2000, then again in Beijing in 2008 after missing Athens because of an injury to Serena. Serena, 30, becomes only the third female tennis player to win a pair of gold medals at the same Olympics, emulating Venus, 32, in 2000 and compatriot Helen Wills Moody in 1924.
