Venus will be turning 40 in a few day’s time, but her aspiration to bloom on the professional circuit is becoming stronger and stronger as she grows older.
She has a plethora of titles under her belt, also she has been successful in the doubles domain of tennis. Nevertheless, the legendary American icon still has the hunger to flourish on the WTA circuit and win more titles.

“I probably won’t be playing as long as what I have already played. We’ll see how I feel. I still love winning as much, but when it’s over, it’s over. I love the Olympics. My father always loved it, it was always his dream. That’s why I played at the beginning and I also loved it growing up, I always liked being there,” Venus Williams told Tennis Majors.

“You always have to have dreams, so I keep having them. I would like to win the Roland-Garros. I was not far from it. The same goes for the Australian Open: I was unlucky, I always missed it a little. The Doubles Masters at the end of the season would be great too. As would winning the mixed doubles at Wimbledon and the US Open,” she added.
“I think that you should always be dreaming. So if you’ve achieved all your dreams then either you want nothing else or you’re dead. So I think for me I’m still dreaming. It’s never enough if you win something, it’s not enough if you lose something so, yeah, it’s never enough.”
