The sisters shared the snippet of them playing their famed game to Serena’s TikTok account.
Legendary sister duo of tennis, Venus and Serena Williams, have returned to the sport in a new TikTok. The sisters shared a snippet of their practice match to the younger William’s account on the social media platform.
The video garnered rightful attention on the internet as it was released on Nov. 20, as the two legends showcased themselves stretching and laughing with one another as they partook in a game.
“Having a blast hitting with [Venus Williams],” captioned the 23-time Grand Slam winner.
Heard in the video was the aptly-included song “Beast Mode” by Rokka. The video is being heralded as the most recent footage of Serena playing on the court that made her a household name. Prior to this, the mother of two was last seen playing professionally at the U.S. Open in September 2022, WTA Tennis reported.
As for Venus, the acclaimed player last played in 2023’s final Grand Slam, with the 43-year-old playing part-time. However, an injury in the first round of the Wimbledon tournament forced her to rest. Despite this, her career is not over yet, and she anticipates returning in March of next year.
Serena, on the other hand, has stayed off the courts for the past few years, focusing her recent efforts on the expansion of her family and entrepreneurial pursuits. Not only did she welcome her second child, daughter Adira River Ohanian, this past August with husband Alexis, she also became the first-ever athlete to win the Fashion Icon award from the Council of Fashion Designers of America in 2023. She and her husband have another daughter, 6-year-old Olympia.
Serena has curated her own brands, including S by Serena, and ventured into fashion on and off the court, frequently with Nike and the Virgil Abloh-founded brand Off White.
Venus is also a businesswoman of the court, juggling various ventures including the most recent partnership with BlendJet. Earlier this month, released the Venus Williams’ Happy Viking Collection.
