Venus Williams didn’t get a great start to the 2021 tennis season. The American legend lost to Sara Errani in the second round of the Australian Open 2021, and that ended her campaign at the Grand Slam. Surprisingly, she was able to win just a single game and lost the match 1-6, 0-6.
Like her sister Serena Williams, 7-time Grand Slam champion Venus Williams is also quite active on Instagram. The older sister frequently posts about her life, her day-to-day routines, and about the people she loves and admires.
In her recent Instagram post, one can see her with her mother, sister Serena, and Serena’s daughter Olympia. It was a little get-together for the Williams’ family yesterday, and Venus certainly enjoyed it.

Venus was clearly trying to highlight the importance of the strong and powerful women in her life. Interestingly, she also decided to tag young Olympia, who might have been a source of inspiration to Venus.
