Venus Williams is proving age is just a number!
With her remarkable comeback to competitive tennis at 45 at the Mubadala Citi-Open in Washington DC.
While everyone else is talking about her age, we’re celebrating her greatness—then and now.
Venus just won a pro-level singles match at age 45, becoming the second-oldest woman in history to do so—her opponent was 22 years younger.
She looks fabulous and fit, radiating confidence and resilience, both on and off the court.
Her legendary power game—big serves, crisp groundstrokes—is still going strong, and she’s not there just for nostalgia: she’s there to rack up wins.
Venus has battled health struggles and surgeries, yet returns stronger and more determined, reminding everyone that limits are often only in our heads.
She’s redefining what midlife and beyond can look like for women—ambitious, competitive, stylish, and unstoppable.
Venus Williams at 45 is a reminder: greatness doesn’t come with an expiration date. Age doesn’t matter—excellence does. Venus is truly living her best mod.life® and it’s never just one path. Let’s look at her other ventures…(Oh yes, and let’s not forget she is getting married in Italy soon from what we understand!)
Venus also has several other ventures: EleVen by Venus Williams, a fashion-forward activewear brand, and V Starr, a full-service commercial and residential design firm. She also has several other ventures and investments, including being an angel investor, a co-founder of Happy Viking, and an operating partner at Topspin Consumer Partners.
