Venus Williams, a tennis legend, marked her return to competitive tennis at the Mubadala Citi DC Open with a stellar performance alongside doubles partner Hailey Baptiste. The duo displayed their dominance on the court, defeating their opponents Eugenie Bouchard and Clervie Ngounoue with a scoreline of 6-3, 6-1. The audience was thrilled to witness Williams back in action, and among the spectators was NBA star Kevin Durant, showing his support for the American tennis icon.

Known for her illustrious career that includes seven singles and 14 doubles Grand Slam titles, Venus Williams had been absent from the tennis scene since her early exit at the Miami Open the previous year. However, she accepted a wildcard entry to the Citi DC Open, signaling her comeback to the sport.

Kevin Durant, a prominent figure in the NBA playing for the Houston Rockets, graced the event with his presence. The basketball star, who has secured two NBA Championships and four Olympic gold medals throughout his career, was seen cheering for Williams from the stands, highlighting the cross-sport admiration and support among elite athletes.

Reflecting on her return to tennis in Washington, Venus Williams expressed her excitement about playing in the city that holds a special place in her heart. With family members and friends residing in DC, Williams felt a strong connection to the community and described the experience as playing at home. She reminisced about her longstanding association with the city and the warm reception she has always received from the fans.

Looking ahead, Venus Williams is set to kick off her singles campaign at the Citi DC Open, facing off against World No. 35 Peyton Stearns. A victory in this match would make Williams the oldest woman to achieve such a feat since Martina Navratilova in 2004, solidifying her legacy as one of the greatest women’s singles players of all time.
