‘How in the World Am I Not Hitting This?’ – Venus Williams Gets Into Tennis Mode With a Hilarious Target Practice

‘King Richard’, the movie based on Serena and Venus’ father and longtime coach Richard Williams, is sweeping the awards season. The movie starring Will Smith depicts the struggles that Richard and his wife Oracene Price had to overcome in order to give their daughters the right tool needed for success in the world of tennis.

The Williams sisters revolutionized the way women’s tennis was played as they introduced a new type of athleticism and power to the game. Coming to the movie, both Venus and Serena were deeply involved in its making. They served as executive producers on the film.

Will Smith, who starred in the titular role, mentioned quite a few times how important it was for the makers of the movie to get the sisters’  approval on the plot and the presentation.

With ‘King Richard’ sweeping the awards one after the other, both Venus and Serena are also enjoying their off time by attending various events. One such appearance came from Venus who was a guest on The Late Late Show hosted by James Corden. Venus was there as a representative of the King Richard and she was joined by actor Zach Braff.
