Serena Williams retired last year after a career that spanned more than two decades. However, her older sister, Venus Williams, still plays in tours around the world. But her current performance has not been indicative of her glorious career. There have even been quite a few rumors of retirement but no concrete news so far. The old coach of both sisters, Rick Macci, also believes that Venus’ retirement may come soon. But he believes it will come in a rather different fashion.

Williams won her first match in 18 months for the first time this year. After struggling for quite a long time, the older Williams sister won her match in the Auckland Classics.

Rick Macci believes in Serena Williams and Venus Williams

Age is something that no one can escape. Aging is inevitable which is most unfortunate for athletes. Venus Williams is a legend of tennis by all means. However, the seven-time grand slam winner is not able to keep up with today’s competition. Venus is currently ranked 677 in the world.

Retirement may come soon and Rick Macci believes that it will come with all the glory. Macci believes that she will win retire at the US Open this year. Further, he predicted that she will play doubles with her sister and both will leave the sport for good. He added that if they actually play again, they could win tournaments.
