The Case for Each
Serena Williams brings the heavier trophy cabinet: 6 documented honours against 6 for Venus Williams. Silverware is not the whole story, but it is the first line of any tennis argument.

Venus Williams is the senior figure by roughly 1 year, which frames the comparison: one career is closer to its final shape, the other still has chapters to write.
Commercially, Serena Williams leads with an estimated $340M net worth. Earning power tracks fame more than form, but it is part of the legacy question.
