Venus Williams is a name that needs no introduction across the tennis world. With sixteen Grand Slam doubles titles and seven single titles, the former World No. 1 is undoubtedly one of the all-time greats. To add to her legendary list of accolades, the older Williams sister has also been an Olympic gold medalist four times.

Not many knew about the journey of the Williams sisters before the release of the movie ‘King Richard’ this past week. A biographical drama, the movie tells the story of how Richard Williams (played by two-time Oscar nominee Will Smith), the father of the Williams duo, left no stone unturned to etch his daughters’ names into history.

Venus Williams shared the ‘OG’ King Richard’s images

Venus Williams took to Instagram to surprise fans with some never-before-seen images. Calling her father the ‘OG King Richard’, she posted images of the young sisters on the court with their dad. To the fans’ delight, Venus, Serena, and ‘King’ Richard himself are seen gleaming with all smiles in the pictures.

The post and its images only add to the awe that the Williams family warrants. We see Richard Williams all those years ago, teaching and advising his daughters on their game, as he helped them train.
