Venus Williams will eventually end her career. When that is perhaps is a mystery as at 44, she shows now signs of letting up or giving in to those questioning when she will retire.
But Venus joked that her sister
Serena Williams ruined her retirement moment of sorts by confirming hers with many thinking that they are twins and as a result thinking that Venus herself has retired.
At the age of 44 though, there is no such signs at least yet that she will give up the game. But she is under no illusion that the time will come sooner rather than later for her to give the game up.
"Yeah, as that moment gets closer. And Serena ruined it for me because as soon as she retired, everybody thought I retired. And sometimes I even think we're twins. So if you guys did think so we are, we are two separate people born on different days," said Venus Williams.
"It's OK now, you know. But in any case, I always thought that I would just be just crying, you know, when I had to retire because like, it's all, you know, you spend your whole life just like programming your mind and do that every single day."
"It's the first thing you think about when you wake up and the first thing when you go to bed and like you dream about it and all these kinds of things. So now I realize that I, I won't cry because I've definitely given everything to the sport."
