Tennis star Venus Williams was spotted at Austin City Limits Music Festival on Friday watching Breland, a country artist who released his debut album “Cross Country” last year.
One of the oldest active players on tour at 43, Williams is the sister of the great Serena Williams, who retired from the sport last September. A former No. 1 player herself, Williams has won seven Grand Slam singles titles: five at Wimbledon and two at the U.S. Open. She’s reached the finals at the French Open and Australian Open while also winning multiple gold medals at the Olympics in singles and in doubles with her sister.
The two sisters were raised in Compton, California with Venus being the first of the sisters to turn pro and reach the No. 1 ranking in 2002. She was the first Black American woman to reach the top spot in the Open Era and the second after Althea Gibson. Her 49 singles titles are also the most among active players.
