Venus Williams reveals an interesting aspect about her younger sister

Recently, Venus spoke about the upbringing she and Serena had when they were young. Their parents never really put pressure on them to go for glory and claim titles. However, she remembers a humorous incident involving Serena.

Speaking on this subject, Venus stated, “Serena was like slicer dicer when she was little, she wanted to drop shot and slice and serve a volley. And my dad said no, hit the ball. So I’m glad he told her that because she can hit the ball hard now, but her nature was like completely different but it makes sense with the personality right? Slice dice drop shot.”

As far as 2021 is concerned, both the Williams sisters had an injury-ridden season. Venus Williams has been missing in action since August. She lost in her opening round at WTA Chicago Women’s Open.

On the other hand, Serena sprained her ankle and was forced to withdraw during her opening round match at the Championships, Wimbledon. Since then, both sisters have missed last year’s US Open and the Australian Open this season.
