Venus Williams received a well-deserved wild card to play the Citi Open in Washington. Her sister Serena Williams was meant to be back to competitions only on the occasion of the WTA1000 event that will be staged in Toronto in a couple of weeks. Nevertheless, Serena surprised her fans by showing up in Washington and practice with Venus.
Apparently, Serena has trained for almost 2 hours. These are some videos.
The best Sunday surprise 😍
