Defending champion Venus Williams easily reached her eighth Wimbledon final by routing top-ranked Dinara Safina 6-1, 6-0 Thursday.

Venus will play little sister Serena on Saturday in a rematch of last year's final. Serena defeated Venus in the 2002 and '03 finals.

Five-time champion Venus won the opening nine points of the semifinal match and saved the only break point she faced in the third game of the first set.

Serena saved a match point and overcame Elena Dementieva 6-7 (4), 7-5, 8-6 in a riveting contest earlier Thursday.
