Despite all the attention now focused on the WTA Washington 2025 with Venus Williams as the main character, doubts about a possible return of her sister, Serena Williams, continue to linger.

The American tennis player, winner of 23 Grand Slams, fueled those rumors by sharing a video of herself training with good intensity, images that also surprised due to her physical transformation, having lost several kilograms in a quite remarkable change.

At 43 years old, and seemingly following in Venus’s footsteps, people are hoping to see her back in competition, even more so after witnessing a completely renewed Serena, though with the uncertainty of whether those changes will help her on a tennis court. Amid all the debate, the younger of the Williams sisters sat down with People to talk precisely about her body.

“I’ve devoted my entire life to learning about my body”

“I want other women to know they are not alone. Your body always speaks to you. Listen to it. Trust it. After giving birth, I knew something was wrong, but I had to fight to be believed; not all women have that opportunity,” Serena confessed about her pregnancy and childbirth.

“I’ve devoted my entire life to learning about my body, on the court, during pregnancy, and recovery. I’ve had to fight to be heard, even when I knew something was wrong. I want to help all women gain the tools and confidence they deserve.”

Her goal

“I want to debunk the myth that women should feel tired or uncomfortable and just push through it. I’ve been through that. Even with all that I know about my body, I’ve had moments where I didn’t feel well and couldn’t find answers. We deserve better.

I want to help normalize listening to your body. Ask yourself what something means, why it’s important, what it’s doing to your body. Whether to your doctor or a product label, don’t be afraid to ask. That’s how you stay in control.”
