At age 45, and newly wed, Venus Williams isn’t slowing down any time soon.
The tennis legend doesn’t compete on the court very often, but she will continue competing at the Australian Open this month after being named a wild-card entry. With this bid, Williams will make her first appearance at the major tournament since 2021. She hasn’t competed outside of the United States since ’23, either. It will mark her first tournament played as a married woman, too, as she recently wed actor, producer and model Andrea Preti.
