Venus Williams made her return to the tennis court on Tuesday in the Netherlands at the Libéma Open after not playing since January, and it sounds as if she isn’t going anywhere for the foreseeable future.
Even though Williams lost in three sets Tuesday in the first round at Amsterdam, the 42-year-old wrote in an Instagram post Wednesday that she is ready to continue improving her health and performances in her “next events.”
“The best news is I walked off the court yesterday not hurt and not even sore after a long match and a string of really challenging injuries which means I have a chance to build on yesterdays performance in my next events,” Williams said. “It’s not easy to continue to come back after unexpected injuries and delays but that’s life and I love what I do and I believe in what I am doing.”
