In a stunning display of resilience, veteran tennis champion Venus Williams has advanced to the women's doubles quarter-finals at the US Open 2025, partnering with Canada's Leylah Fernandez, a 2021 US Open finalist.
While Venus shines on the court, her sister, Serena Williams, finds herself in the spotlight for a different reason. Although Serena is not competing, the four-time Olympic gold medallist admits to feeling a pang of envy for not teaming up with Venus in the tournament.
The sisters have a storied legacy, with three Olympic doubles golds and two US Open doubles titles from 1999 and 2009. Venus's latest triumph is a call to her sister, as she publicly urges Serena to cheer her on from the stands with a heartfelt plea: 'Serena, you need to show up.'
