If you put two extremely entertaining superstars like Venus Williams and Victoria Azarenka together on Instagram Live, you are sure to get an explosive session of gossip. That’s exactly what fans got when the two stars talked about everything under the sun.
While half the session was both stars just laughing, the rest saw them talking about very interesting things. Victoria, in particular, was on fire with her hilarious quips. One such interesting topic was how the Williams sisters are still children at heart.
This happened after they recounted some interesting incidents. Somehow, Venus and Victoria were able to bring up Serena’s husband and Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian. Let’s see how the entire conversation transpired.
What did Venus Williams and Victoria Azarenka talk about?
Venus revealed how she and Serena refuse to grow up. This was despite the fact that Serena is a mother now.
“I have always told Serena, not just on the court, but like neither of us have really grown up. I don’t think anyone sees that side of us.
They just see the tennis side. But I’m like “you’re a mom now, it’s time to grow up, like come on, what kind of example are you setting.”
Victoria Azarenka then recalled her funniest moment with Serena Williams that involved her daughter.
“The funniest one thing I have seen of Serena I think was in her documentary. So when Alexis was telling her that Olympia will be winning Wimbledon and she’s like – “Not till I am around”.
Like that’s not scripted, that’s really like how she is, it’s like it’s real, that part it doesn’t get away, the competition.”
Venus replied saying Alexis was not sure what was in store for him when he married Serena. Alexis wasn’t going to have to deal with Serena alone now, it was the entire Williams family.
“I don’t think Alexis knew what he was getting into, like he married the whole family. And I’m very much like her. So, I was like you didn’t realize there were two of us just like that. But he’s taken off, he, he’s a good brother really.”
This was certainly some good entertainment for their supporters and their followers.
Venus Williams Reveals Her Best Friend On The WTA Tour
We have seen Venus Williams have a great relationship with almost everybody on the WTA Tour but who’s her best friend on the Tour? Venus gave an answer to this very question in a recent Q&A session she conducted on YouTube.
Venus Williams Says That Serena Is Her Best Friend
Recently, Venus Williams had a Q&A session on Youtube where she answered many questions posed to her by fans. One fan asked her who her good friend on the WTA Tour was, apart from Serena. Venus replied,
“I love everybody on the WTA tour but Serena, especially, is my best friend and my doubles’ partner.”
I don’t think anyone expected Venus Williams to say anything else. She and Serena are very close as sisters and have also done very well as a team.
Apart from their singles’ achievements, they have won 14 Grand Slams and 2 Olympic Gold medals in women’s doubles, which are all absolutely amazing achievements.
We haven’t seen the amazing doubles’ pair play since the 2018 French Open where they lost in the third round.
They were supposed to pair up again in 2019 at Indian Wells, but sadly, Serena retired due to a viral illness.
Now, we won’t have the chance to see the doubles’ pair again for a while thanks to the coronavirus pandemic.
The global health crisis has forced the WTA Tour’s suspension till July. However, that is assuming that the virus is contained by then.
Looking at the current situation, that does not seem likely as the number of cases is increasing daily. If the situation does not improve soon, it is likely we will not see any tennis in 2020.
I am sure no tennis fan wants that. Serena and Venus Williams certainly do not want that. I am sure they want to play doubles together again and possibly win one last Grand Slam before they both retire from tennis.
