Also, the American mentioned the qualities in her father that she admires the most.

“He wanted us to have fun first over anything. That’s the thing that I loved most. I love his strength. I love how strong he taught us to be, and not to accept anything less than what we deserve”, Serena concluded.

Venus and Serena dominated women’s tennis for close to two decades

As much as Richard Williams deserves all the appreciation he is getting, Serena and Venus’ mother Oracene Price also played a key role in shaping the games of both her daughters.

Both Serena and Venus went on to have 30 Grand Slam titles(23 for Serena and 7 for Venus) in their illustrious career. Even though Serena won her last major at the 2017 Australian Open, she has made several finals since then and is definitely capable of adding yet another slam title to her name.

Venus, on the other hand, had fallen back on the race but continues to mesmerize fans with her on-court skills every now and then. She had played multiple tournaments this year but couldn’t go past the initial rounds in any of them.

Both the Williams sisters will be making a comeback at the Australian tennis summer in January next year.
