Serena Williams beat unseeded Jie Zheng of China 6-2, 7-6 (7-5) to set up a third all-Williams Wimbledon title match on Saturday.
"I'm looking forward to playing her," Venus told reporters before her sister's victory. "It's so exciting. I lost serve once every match. That's pretty impressive (and) I'm looking forward to that final."
Venus, 28, a six-time Grand Slam champion, rose to 7-0 in Wimbledon semifinal appearances and will be trying to win her 37th title in 59 career finals.
Serena won the 2002 and 2003 matchups.
