Serena Williams has her sights set on winning Olympic gold in the mixed doubles at London 2012.

The World No.1 already has Olympic gold medals in the women's doubles from Sydney 2000 and Beijing in 2008, but following the introduction of the event at the Olympics for the first time, the world No.1 admitted Andy Roddick would be her ideal partner.

"We have so much fun on and off the court," she said. "We've talked about it a little bit. There are some other Americans coming up if Andy is not playing and doesn't want to play, I have a couple other guys in mind."

Williams admitted she would love to partner Bob or Mike Bryan, the top-ranked doubles pairing, with her sister teaming up with the other. "I would love to play with one of them (the Bryans)."I think Venus is already trying to get down on one of them. I'm definitely going to go and have fun though."
