Venus Williams has had a phenomenal rise to the elite group of tennis. The 41-year-old established the ‘Williams’ name on the tennis circuit. Over her illustrious career, Venus has won seven Grand Slam singles titles.

Moreover, she has teamed up with her sister Serena to clinch 14 Grand Slam doubles titles. Additionally, the elder Williams sister has won four gold medals at the Olympics, three with her sister and one in singles.

Recently, a biographic film named ‘King Richard’ was released in honor of him. Recently, Will Smith, who played Richard Williams in the film, won a prestigious award for his role.
