Despite her early round loss at the Libema Open s-Hertogenbosch, Venus Williams received a lot of praise from fans for her effort, with sister Serena Williams being her biggest supporter.
Venus had been out of action since early January due to a hamstring injury, and made her return to the court after accepting a wildcard entry to the Libema Open. Although the 43-year old fell in three sets to 17-year old Swiss wildcard Celine Naef, her efforts and heart were never in doubt as she left everything on the tennis court.
Serena Williams, who was present to watch her sister play, took to Instagram after the match to show her support.
"So proud of this woman”, Williams wrote on Instagram, alongside a photo of Venus in action.
