Venus Williams’ childhood coach Rick Macci doesn’t think that the seven-time Grand Slam champion should retire after what happened at the US Open. Williams, 43, suffered a 1-6 1-6 loss to Greet Minnen in the US Open first round.
During the match, it was evident that Williams was still bothered by a knee injury that forced her out of Cleveland last week. Throughout the entire year, Williams has been battling injuries and setbacks. “Was asked should @Venuseswilliams retire after a rough night.
My take is No way. The Compton Comet loves the Stage and loves to Compete. Hard for any champion to say I’m done. She packs the stands and everybody loves VW. The second greatest player of all time in my opinion will let us Know when she will Go,” Macci wrote on X.
