‘Venus and Serena: For Real’ was a reality TV show featuring the two sisters that aired in 2005. The show followed the sisters’ endeavors both on and off the court. From Venus’ reaction to the question about starring again in the show with her sister, we can gauge that the show’s reception among the fans wasn’t what they expected.

Venus and Serena Williams’ tennis journey has been unconventional. When Venus entered the tennis circuit, almost no one expected Serena to blast through, and certainly not a Williams v/s Williams final at several Grand Slam tournaments. Consequently, the fans connected with the sisters’ journey to stardom. Hence, fans are always eager to see the sisters’ re-union, on-court or off-court.

However, when Venus was questioned about her retirement, her response made clear that the American tennis legend was in no mood to say goodbye! And there is still a lot of tennis left in her.
