Can Venus Williams have one last laugh in her tennis career?
While younger sister, Serena Williams, already retired in 2022, Venus Williams has kept her fans guessing about her retirement. However, at 43, time is running out for her. During an interview, her former coach, Macci, talked about her chances shortly.
He said, “I think it’s up to Venus. But listen, she can still be a threat in doubles or mixed doubles if she wants to play.
