Five-time Wimbledon champion Venus Williams has been on top of her game throughout her whole career whether it’s on the court or off the court. After making her professional debut in 1994, Venus never looked back as her career took off in the right direction. She also reached her career-high ranking at no.1 in 2002. 

Apart from being a great tennis player, Venus also made waves in the business world. Often, we saw her wearing tennis gear from her own brand, EleVen. However, we probably won’t see her wearing the same brand on the tennis court as she got a new clothing partner. 

Venus Williams feels excited to be a part of the Lacoste family

In the latest news, Venus announced on Instagram that she has joined the French clothing brand Lacoste. Interestingly, Venus wanted to keep it a secret. However, information got out as both Venus and Lacoste shared the good news on their social media. 

“So proud to be joining the @lacoste family! It was so hard to keep this a secret for so long! I’m looking forward to doing some pretty amazing things in sport and in the community as a part of the Lacoste family!” Venus posted.

Meanwhile, Lacoste also looked pretty excited to welcome Venus, one of the greatest athletes in the world. “Welcome to the #TeamLacoste, @Venuseswilliams! As one of the greatest athletes in the world, Venus embodies off the court all the ambitions of the new fashion-sport silhouette created by Louise Trotter.”

Notably, Lacoste also sponsors famous athletes like Novak Djokovic and Daniil Medvedev.

Can Venus make a sensational comeback on the tour?

Venus Williams is currently ranked no. 470 in the WTA rankings. Due to a lack of playing time on the tour, her rankings witnessed major dip. She last played in August last year at the Chicago Open and since then we didn’t see her play a single match on tour. 

However, the deal with Lacoste is the biggest hint that the legendary American player is coming back on the tennis court very soon.
