Venus Williams recently revealed her feelings about retiring from tennis and opened up about how her sister Serena Williams’ retirement caused speculation about hers too.

The American player has played only two tournaments this year. Williams’s first tournament of the year was the Indian Wells Masters, which was held on March 7, 2024, where she squared off against Nao Hibino in the first round.

Hibino grabbed the win with a score of 2-6, 6-3, 6-0, putting an early end to Venus’ journey in the tournament. She faced a similar fate in her second and last tournament of the year, the Miami Open, where she was defeated in the very first round by Diana Shnaider with a score of 6-3, 6-3.

the 44-year-old appeared in an interview where she disclosed that during Serena Williams’s retitement, many people mistakenly thought it was Venus who retited, which ruined the moment for her. However, she emphasized that she won’t cry, as she has already given a lot to the sport.
