Venus Williams explains what she felt playing on clay five years later

Five years? Well, indeed, almost five years since the last time Venus Williams had played an official tournament on clay. Specifically, since the Roland Garros in 2021, when she was eliminated in the early stages by Ekaterina Alexandrova. This Tuesday, she faced the same fate in the Mutua Madrid Open against Kaitlin Quevedo, although the American did not leave Spain sad,

“I started practicing on clay a couple of weeks after Miami. I haven't really played on clay in years, but I really enjoy this surface, it's fun. I won't be able to play in Rome because I have other commitments, unfortunately, so I'm really super sad about that. My husband is Italian, so we're sad not to be able to be there, but we would love to continue with the clay court swing,” the champion assessed.
