'I'll be at the hotel!' Third Williams sister will NOT be going to Venus and Serena's Australian Open final - because she doesn't want to choose a side
- Isha Price, daughter of Oracene Price from her first marriage, says she will not be attending Venus and Serena's final on Saturday
- The 41-year-old lawyer says she will watch from the hotel to avoid the rivalry
- Sister will play each other for a Grand Slam title for the first time since 2008
She may not be as well known as her younger sisters Venus and Serena, but it seems Isha Price is not immune to being caught up in their sibling rivalry.
The 41-year-old lawyer has revealed she will be watching the Williams face off in the Australian Open final from her hotel room because she cannot decide which box to sit in.
Price, who was born to Venus and Serena's mother Oracene Price during her first marriage, was asked by 7 News if she knows who she will be rooting for.
Isha Price, 41, says she will not be attending Venus and Serena's Australian Open final on Sunday and will instead watch from her hotel room
'I don't, I don't, I won't be there,' she replied, adding: 'It'll be amazing. I will be at the hotel.'
Serena and Venus will face each other in a Grand Slam final for the first time since 2008 when they meet on Saturday night in Melbourne.
On that last occasion, at Wimbledon, Venus emerged the victor but overall Serena leads the rivalry with 22 Grand Slam titles to Venus's seven.
The pair have a lengthy history when it comes to the Australian Open as well - with the tournament providing their first ever professional match back in 1998 when they met in the second round, with Venus advancing.
Their last meeting at the final of the tournament came back in 2003, when Serena triumphed in three sets, 4–6, 6–4, 6–2.
The Williams sisters will play each other in a Grand Slam final for the first time since 2008 at Wimbledon, and the first time in the Australian Open final since 2003
In another throwback, Roger Federer is also through to the Australian Open final where he could meet old rival Rafael Nadal
With a combined age of 71, the sisters are the oldest women to have faced off in the singles finals of any Grand Slam tournament.
The accolade of oldest player ever to have won a Grand Slam still rests with Australian Kenneth Rosewall, who won his country's own Open at 37 years and 2 months old in 1972.
The Australian Open final 2017 is shaping up to be something of a throwback, with Venus and Serena facing off in the women's tournament, while in the men's a showdown between Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal is looking increasingly likely.
Federer is already through to the final following a five-set battle with fellow Swiss Stan Warinka on Thursday night.
Meanwhile Rafael Nadal is widely tipped to beat Grigor Dimitrov when the pair play on Friday night.
