However, Stubbs opined that, unlike her sister, Venus Williams will convey her retirement decision after she plays her final match at the tournament. Serena, who has played just four singles matches this season, recently announced that this year's US Open will be her final career tournament. Meanwhile, the Citi Open earlier this month was 42-year-old Venus' first singles tournament in a year. She has played just three matches going into the US Open. Speaking on an episode of the Rennae Stubbs Tennis Podcast, Stubbs expressed her opinion on Venus' eventual retirement. "I think that it would very much surprise me if Venus Williams doesn't retire as well at the US open," Stubbs said.

She compared the situation to that of Steffi Graf and her husband Andre Agassi, who are both legendary tennis players. While Agassi had a big farewell, Graf made a sudden announcement. "It'll be interesting to see what Venus does now because I just can't see one playing without the other," Stubbs continued. "So Venus, of course, as always very low key, Venus will probably finish the last match and be like, yeah, by the way, that's it. Like, you know, that sort of personality...You know, as I can see, Venus being like 'Yeah, bye. That's it. I'm done'."

Stubbs believes the atmosphere at Flushing Meadows this year will be like never before and she hopes to see Williams win a lot of matches in her final Major. "That is gonna be the hottest ticket in sports, you know, seeing Serena Williams playing her last match. I mean, good luck getting a ticket for that match. Nothing would make me happier to watch her win a lot of matches at the US Open because I think that would just be absolutely crazy," Stubbs said. "New York probably has never been this loud for the US Open has never been this loud and enthusiastic to see a tennis player than this year, you know, with the retirement of Serena Williams," she added.
