In a recent interview with , Venus Williams spoke about her connection with Serena Williams and acknowledged that the two sisters are pretty reliant on one another. Remarking that the two had the propensity to follow one another even as little young girls, she said: "We do the same thing that the other one does.

The 42-year-old touched on making her professional debut at the age of 14 and how she and her sister had "elevated" tennis with their success. "At the time, I didn't know that I was different and now I realise how very different I was. But difference is what makes the world beautiful – and I think people really can see that now, in terms of what Serena and I have accomplished in the sport, and how it's elevated tennis, sport or even the world. So different is the only way to go," she stated. Unlike her younger sibling, Venus has not retired from the sport, despite only playing four singles matches this year and failing to win a tour-level victory.
