Venus Williams and Serena Williams share a very special bond. They are one of the most accomplished sibling duos in women’s tennis history. The two support each other on and off the tennis court.

However, one particular person always had an equal influence in the sisters’ lives, and that’s their mother, Oracene Price. Former American player and tennis coach Rick Macci revealed that mother Oracene Price had an equal, soothing influence on the Williams sisters’ success.
