The legendary Venus Williams made a comeback to competitive tennis this year after recovering from her injuries. However, her return was lukewarm at best. The former World Number 1 could only win two matches in the five tournaments she participated in. To add fuel to the fire, an unfortunate airline mishap caught Venus completely by surprise as she made her way to the Canadian Open.

Janet Jackson T-shirt and the saga of Venus’ missing luggage

As Venus Williams was left stranded without her luggage upon arrival in Montreal, she found herself with only one T-shirt – a Janet Jackson one. Moreover, she couldn’t even have access to her tennis equipment since those were also part of her misplaced luggage. Williams chose to show off her Janet Jackson shirt as she posted a picture of herself wearing the same on her Instagram story while taking a sarcastic jibe at the entire situation. “Me when I only had my Janet Jackson shirt to wear bc the airline sent my bag to the Caribbean. Walking my dog and laying in the grass and dreaming about when me and my bag would be together again”, she wrote.
