American star Serena Williams has had an incredible career winning over 70 titles. However, she’s not the only one from her family to achieve so much. Her sister Venus has also done very well winning 49 titles and has served as her biggest inspiration.
In a recent interview at the Australian Open, Serena talked about this and said,
“She’s such an inspiration because she never gets frustrated about her situation health-wise. She is always looking on the bright side and then, she works so hard, and yeah, she has been great.”

“We were hitting partners for the first 2 weeks since we were here in Australia. It was so good to train with her and it was so good every day. It was also very inspiring cause she still pushes me on another level that no one was able to push me and so, it was incredibly helpful,” she added.
