Coach Rick
Macci discussed the relationship between the Williams sisters and affirmed that
Venus was never jealous of Serena Williams.
Macci
played a crucial role in the development of the former world No. 1 sisters and
multi-Grand Slam champions. After Richard Williams reached out to Macci, the
American coach welcomed the talented sisters into his academy.
According
to Macci, the seven-time Grand Slam champion Venus Williams was never envious
of her sister Serena, even though Serena achieved more success with 23 Grand
Slam titles:
"Was
asked if Venus Williams was EVER jealous of Serena Williams because the younger
Compton Comet became better. Easiest question about the Goat family to answer.
NEVER EVER. Two Peas in a Pod like the world has NEVER EVER SAW and the
inspiring story that says it ALL," Macci wrote on X.
A close
bond was always evident between the sisters, who, together, clinched 14 Grand
Slam titles as a doubles pair and secured Olympic gold in Sydney 2000, Beijing
2008, and London 2012.
Venus, at
43, continues to compete on the WTA Tour, while her sister Serena retired in
2022 at the age of 40. Serena has since shifted her focus to investments and
entrepreneurship, alongside ongoing projects in the realms of fashion, sports,
and more.
In the
Cincinnati Open last August, Venus Williams celebrated her most significant
victory since 2019, defeating the world No. 16 Veronika Kudermetova. Following
her triumph, ‘Queen V’ revealed that one of the first messages she received
was, indeed, from her younger sister Serena.
“She texted
me after. She had a lot of encouraging words to say. She just is encouraging me
to, you know, just to rise to be my best, because she believes in me and she
knows what I have inside of me. It's nice to have obviously her, because she
knows and she knows what position I'm in and what it's like to be in this
position,” 5-times Wimbledon champion said,”
“She knows
what it's like to have something to give, but, like, you just need that
opportunity. So, it's nice that she believes in me,” Venus revealed after her
Cincinnati win,” Venus Willams added.
It's a record ! As a doubles pair, the Williams sisters have won 3 golden medal at the Olympic Games: in Sydney 2000, Beijing 2008 and London 2012 🥇
