You will leave your mark here on this earth as a great woman.. ❤️
She has!
🤗
And YAASSSSS your mark as great woman is felt internationally and Universally!!! 🔥🔥🔥💫🌟💕
I just picked up a racket for the first time at 30 years old and I am now playing USTA and 5days a week of drills and pickup court time. Tennis truly changed my life !!
I'm like you but in my forties and started playing in the fall of 2020. Tennis saved me throughout the pandemic and now I can't imagine my life without this incredible sport ❤️
Congratulations Jami. Tennis is truly a sport for a lifetime. Enjoy your journey.
❤️
Congratulations. How long (years) after you started playing did you end up playing USTA?
The movie was fantastic 🤔 maybe we can get a part 2 with a little bit more of Serena’s side of her starting her first matches and you both winning your first slams
I would love a sequel!
Ohh, Mr.Creative242!!! These girls were very young when their dad started their careers. It was a different time in America. You do not want to see or hear the reactions of how our country, truly, treated them. Also, a lot of videos have been cut over the years. At tourney introductions, they cut the nasty mean comments yelled out from the crowd. Also, stuff would happen to them while playing their sets. I am 75yrs old now, sometimes I would just turn the TV off. The worst of the worst was Indian Wells. However, the best of the best was when 18yr old Serena won and made her winning interview. That speech was completely cut out. I my goodness, I cried so hard for her. This young child stayed calm, commented nicely about their treatment of her. But, hears the kicker. She actually smiled looking out at the crowd and said I FORGIVE YOU!! She then ran crying to her family in the bleachers. That when I knew this girl would be someone great!!! If u know anyone that can pull up her winning speech, I would suggest you check it out. There was no reason for the powers that be to take away her comments, the child was a professional, back then! 😭😱😥
@@aejooh2815 the world needs to know when they been through so it can be changed n so they can truly value Venus & Serena
oh that would be SO dope. I wanted to see more of Serena. love the williams sisters
honestly it was so good. Seeing that part of your family, how your dad molded you, but also how instrumental your mom was in both of your development. It was so inspirational. thank you for sharing with us.
Loved the movie 🥰 we need 'King Richard 2' carrying on from when the movie ended to you winning Wimbledon 👌🏽
I used to play tennis back in high school, but then life happened and I quit. I watched the movie in March for the first time and it moved me and inspired me so much that the next day I went to buy a racket and subscribe to tennis classes! It feels great to be back and I always question myself and wonder why I left it in the first place.
Now, every time one of my friends or family members suggests watching a movie I ALWAYS recommend King Richard, which has left me to watch it six times now (and counting!!). I liked it that much. I always admired you and Serena, you both are among my favorite players and getting to see some background of your lives was amazing, so thank you for that gift!!
I LOVED that movie!! It totally left me wanting more. Your dad may not be perfect, but that man did his job and then some. So much respect for you all.
Man that movie was amazing. It was incredible. Your family's story is just an inspiration to soo many people. I have nothing but RESPECT for the Williams family. I Love You Venus Williams.
Venus, the movie was beautiful and I teared up watching the ending credits video. I watched you and Serena grow up on the tennis court and I'm so proud of you two. Your father was a prophet and your mom helped execute the mission ❤❤❤
My wife and I never thought we could love you and Serena more than we already did. But after watching this movie and learning more about the intimate details of your journey, we feel closer to you and Serena, and we love you so much more. We love you for what you represent. Thank you, and please continue to inspire us.
That is awesome!
Your family's story is remarkable, frankly the American dream! Your story should be told, and I feel like there's at least another movie to be made. Two sisters dominate the sport of tennis, maybe 'Queen Sisters' I think people would love to hear the story of you Venus a grand tennis champion and your sister the GOAT.
This!! Agreed 100%! Saniyya and Demi better get ready lol
The movie should have won best picture. I was so moved by how Will Smith played your dad. My favorite part of the movie was when he talks to Serena at the tennis court and tells her that she will be the "best that ever was." "The Greatest of all Time" I had tears in my eyes after that scene. It was amazing to see how your dad had so much faith in his plan for the both of you to succeed and become the best you could be. Both of you are such role models and inspirations. I like watching behind the scenes when you, Isha and Serena met the kids. All of you were so funny. BTW, York, Brian Butts and Byron were not into you girls? They didnt know what they were missing. Love you, Venus! 😘😘
When I watch videos on CZcams, I rarely watch all the way through. But when it comes to Venus and Serena, I am transfixed and watch and listen to every word to the very end. I have little interest in tennis, but with these two, (these two!), I have watched almost all of their games all the way through. They are like assassins on that court. Genghis Khan has nothing on them. It is truly remarkable to watch…
What a Great movie, what a great story to tell. May God bless you and your family.
Thank you and your family for sharing your story with the world. Very powerful 👏.
so glad that you mentioned ✨Aunjanue Ellis, Venus.
i could not stop watching her for one second.
Aunjanue’s performance was just amazing - and very truthful - as Oracene.
Dear Venus,
when you decide to retire eventually, please stay this way (through your channel) in touch with all of us. I am your fan since 2002 and I love to see you on court, but when your career on court ends, I would be grateful to hear your voice and see your smile this way.
Love you Vee 🤩
The movie was released for home viewing 3 weeks ago here in Japan. LOVED it.
I can't tell you how amazing and powerful this CZcams is. When I was elementary, me and my sister played tennis and in the neighborhood we lived in full of shootings and crime it was really uncommon to see people like us playing. Anyway, then we looked up to a player named Zina Garrison, who at the time was the only one that looked like us playing tennis on TV. We tried to write her via mail, but had absolutely no access to her to be able to see and learn these things that you share on your CZcams channel for free or just seeing someone reflect us. That in itself for kids like us could have been game changing and it will be for kids that watch your channel from these neighborhoods now! Can't wait to see you back on the court and love what you're doing off the court! Big ups! 🎾 ❤️ 🏆
I'm not sure why, but I liked the part where he made you play in the rain. Training for everything, wow. Awesome movie!
"Let's blown the horn for the people that have gone" I admired Richard's awareness to life.
I've seen the movie for at least 5 times 😍❤ and cried every single time. It is so emotional and inspiring 🥰
Thankyou Venus , i actually sat and watched the whole movie , which is pretty rare for us these days , loved it , 👍🤙
A Star, a Goddess, a Queen---Venus! 😍🤩😍🤩
Thank you Venus. I love the movie, very inspirational. That skin, That glow is absolutely beautiful.
I went to that movie with a friend we left in tears and highly inspired. Those credits were very touching. One question I would have how does it feel to relieve some of these moments on screen? Does it makes you reflect and see a different perspective on your life ?
I was really touched by the part where Venus didnt really mind having a Silver or Gold trophy. She gave the gold to Serena!
I loved the movie. My daughter was 2 when the movie came out. She was in front of the TV pretending to swing a racket when she saw the young ladies playing Serena and Venus. It was so cute. I wish I would have recorded it.
We love Venus and Serena in this house. My daughter definitely knows when she sees Serena on tv..even in commercials.
One thing regarding the movie:
I wonder how it felt for the Williams family to see the young lady who played Yetunde on screen.
I know it must have been bittersweet.
I pray that she is resting peacefully.
Who can deny that Oracene and Richard Williams accomplished more than any other coach in the history of tennis. What they did, influence the men's game and the women but also recreational tennis. Thank you Richard and Oracene and the whole Williams family for sharing this gift with us.
Sending my love you and Serena are my inspiration always have been , always will be 😘💛♥️♥️
When I saw this last year it was definitely the finest film experience I’d had in years!! It captured the true life thrill of dreaming as big as possible in the real world and then tackling all the obstacles along the way step by step!! What an experience to participate in visually and emotionally!! Love!! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Hello VENUS 👋
I AM SOOOO PROUD of you !
Venus, recently we watched the film for the 2nd time. It emotionally captivated us. It is well on its way toward being another Shawshank for us… that is, a film we’ll watch anytime it’s on television. It’s so inspiring to see 2 young Black girls strive for and achieve their dreams. Bravo!!! 🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥
What a beautiful film. Truly inspiring. That scene where police are called and Mr Williams confronts them telling them that he's just trying to raise his kids right in a tough environment, it really touched me. Your family will be remembered for generations for breaking barriers and being so brave. I love you guys, champions forever.
You are such a thoroughbred, and you are an ambassador for the USA, exhibiting a poise and graciousness that makes us all so proud, and grateful.
Venus is smart, funny and with a drop of sarcasm. Totally classy and entertaining - playing the journey with humor making it enjoyable.
It was an AMAZING movie! I loved every minute of it! I may or may not have cried like three times…
Loved this movie so much!! You guys are just amazing humans and so glad the Lord shared your lives with us!🤩🤩🤩
I train my son since 6 old, he is now 8 and winning some local ITF red ball tournaments for kids, now moved to orange ball, when I watched movie of course I found many similarities to how I train my son like using car parkings since we have no free courts like in USA, we can't use basket with balls since its not possible in parkings, asphalt is slippery and dangerous, often we play in granite surface which is also slippery, its also windy and sometimes we play under rain, there are whole lot of things that against us but we keep trying...
AWWWW NEVER SAW IT YET🥲🥲🥲. NOT IN TRINIDAD 🇹🇹 YET… I GUESS..🤔
THANKS FOR YOUR BRIEF SYNOPSIS.. IN YOUR TAKE OF IT….SMILE… AND … BLESSINGS/ CONGRATULATIONS 🎉🎊🍾🎈 ON KING RICHARD… BEST ACTOR… 🙏🏾🙏🏾💯💯
I liked the film too Venus. It gave me better insight into what you went through learning to play the game of tennis in what at that time was a sport that was reserved for whites only. Glad you made it to the top of the game and I will always remember the TREMENDOUS contribution that you gave to the game. Thank You soooo much.
This was my favorite film last year. I've already seen it three times. I mostly could relate to your dad. The obstacles he had to overcome so that you & Serena could become champions was so inspiring. His persistence & dedication has helped motivate me to achieve my dreams. I'm 58 years old, never played tennis, and I'm DETERMINED to be a Wimbledon champion! (no, I'm just kidding). Seriously though, it did show me how important it is to commit to your dream (whatever that may be) on a daily basis. If you fail to plan, you plan to fail. As far as questions I have, did your dad really get beat up by gang members?
OMG, I literally put a comment a while back requesting your opinions on the movie. I love the movie so much, and after watching this video, I just love it more. It is such an inspirational movie, and I do take it personally as I am also from an underprivileged family. I love how assertive Richard was, and how much faith he has in you and Serena. I had quite a few "You gotta be kidding me" moments while watching the movie, while he demanded free coaching and a house, who does that? When he refused a million dollar contract after your first US open, isn't that insane? I was completely blown away, and inspired by your whole family. Thank you for sharing your wonderful story with the entire world. By the way, your kitchen looks pretty nice, maybe you can make a cooking video if you like cooking. I wonder what a champion eats on a daily basis, and what is the staple dish in your family. Have a great weekend.
Nice comment and feedback - second the idea of a video on food 👍🏾😋
Love you and your content 🎾💙
Your story is the most beautifull things i have hear from the botton to the top , with discipline and a very good father too bless king richard and bless williams sister the greaths forever
You are so kind
@@VenusWilliams thanks tou too and thanks you for sharing , may god bless you and your family
I love the film 🎞 Ah-Mazing!!❤️❤️
Im a tennis bum since the 80’s! Venus you changed the game and bent the curve to inspire and promote women’s tennis to a whole Nother level. Nobody else did that but you. If you did it with beauty and grace and wait for it…… Power! It’s so great to watch you on CZcams. Please keep at it, you are a breath of fresh air.
Non sai quanto sia bello guardare i tuoi video. Grazie❤️
You don’t know how fun is to watch your videos. Thank you ❤️
Thank you so much!

And...it is a GREAT joy and privilage to see the queens of tennis play. Thank you what you have given the world, both in personality and talent.
🙏
Phenomenal move and life story! What an amazing family!
Great Film!!! Been waiting seems like forever for it. Can’t wait for the next film on the next chapters of you guys life and career. I’ve been a fan of the Williams Family since 1993 when I first heard about their story. 🖤🖤🖤
Love the film, the acting, the tennis & the music! So well done! I’ve watched it several times already ♥️♥️
Love your channel. Thank you for sharing this part of yourself with us. All the best.
get to finally watch t movie ,definitely a classic ,i love it ,so many various aspects of this movie are beautiful ,i especially luv t way richard look out for his girls career wise, he didn't jump at the first offer when it was presented to venus play pro, he paced himself and finally the right offer n moment came ,truly a success story of focus,hard work,commitment,humility and patience .Absolutely love it .
Thank you Venus for sharing your take on the movie. My family and I love King Richard!!! It was So inspiring and awesome to see how your careers began and words and work brought you'll dreams to fruition.
Love the court scene moment with V and King Richard. The kitchen scene with mom and dad was intense engaging and emotional.
Love how free spirited Venus was in winning matches, just full of bounce & energy. Opponents would act so rigid, so was just nice to see authentic excitement ❤️.
Oooh when Oracene checked that neighbour! YES GOD LOL🙌🏾⭐
A very happy birthday to you Venus🥳
Wishing for you good health, joy and peace. Have a great one!
Happy Birthday, V. You are an inspiration to many!
So glad to hear your feelings on the movie! It is one of my favorites now! I will always be # Team Venus!!!
I can listen to you all day , you are so genuine and gentle, be well and stay well Ms. Venus.
I can’t even tell you how many people I have told they MUST watch this film. OUTSTANDING!!! Thank you for sharing your family life story with the world! 💗
Yes.. He was great and you 2 did the work..happy to have the story told..
I am so happy I saw the film. I was only a baby when Venus turned pro, and I only heard of Venus and Serena when I was.... I think around 8 years old. Two sisters taking the tennis world by storm! So I did a lot of reading about them, and really got to learn about them, and seeing this movie really got me to experience their upbringing and how they grew to success!
I loved the movie and the closeness of your family. A great family movie. Thank you!
I loved the movie. Great things come from passion and dedication. You deserve every good thing you earned in your life. I really believed the actresses were real players and hear you saying they learned all that in six months was so awesome.
thank you for the video, I loved it! You are the greatest!
Venus, great update. I am a sports fan and used to enjoy watching Transworld Sport early Sunday mornings in the UK and one episode they featured yourself and Serena. A nice introduction to 'future number 1 and number 2' in women's tennis. From your comments and others in this page, with tissues close to hand I am sure I will thoroughly enjoy the movie King Richard. 💜✌🏾
Venus Williams CZcams channel is the channel I didn’t know I needed until now!
Most of the pros don’t like to share tips, but you’re channel is amazing 🤩
I hope that you will continue to make more great videos that inspire me 🙏 😊
Such a beautiful movie, can't wait for my young nieces to watch it, very inspirational. Thank you 😊 🇬🇧
I enjoy seeing you live with passion.
I loved the film for sooo many reasons..but glad to hear that you and your family did too!
I just watched last week and Loved it! And Loved even more the Extra Video shared on HBO Max when you two visit the set, and everyone is so happy!! Now I am watching Being Serena because of it. And now I'm here on CZcams watching your Videos! 🙂🙏
I saw the movie last week and must say I loved it! Being a highly unskilled amateur tennis player, I already had a huge amount of admiration for Venus and Serena but the movie added a view on your background and made it all the more interesting! Congratulations on your amazing achievements!
I love you and your videos!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY QUEENUS!
I knew you on court Ms Williams. And seeing you off-court is even more amazing. You are so eloquent yet humble. Indeed, this movie has been extremely inspirational for me in my personal life... "Pick up a racquet and start swinging" - I won't forget your words. To have known your family through this acclaimed cast was an unforgetable journey. God bless you, your father, mother, sisters, husband, and kids!
Thank you for this video. I have not seen the film because I thought it would be one of those "Hollywood" types. Those where the consultant's input is disregarded for the Hollywood hype to get more movie goers. It's really good to know you guys were on set and keeping this as real as, well, REAL❤ So, yes, based on your review, I intend to watch. ❤❤
Thank you Venus, the first time I saw your mother and father I called them King Richard and Lady Oracene. I read your father's book, so as I sat in that theater (all but completely filled), cried the entire movie, for several reasons. Story line was that of a fairy tale! I didn't see actors, they were that good. What a gift to the world!
I loved the film and hats off to all involved. Question I have is when Richard was defending his daughters honor and as a result was beaten for it was that an actual event? I also enjoyed the fact that once the "thugs" saw what the sisters could do began to protect them. I hope that was a true event. I watched the movie 3 times. Loved it. Told others about it.
Watched the movie last week , i know what i have to tell my kids … keep a humble heart i cried when your father told you that when all of you were watching tv … i realy cried…. Thank you for sharing this with us !
I absolutely LOVED the movie King Richard! Thanks Venus for sharing your insight. 😊😊😊
Congrats Vee! Amazing
Once again you openly share some of your most personal thoughts and feelings with us. You are an inspiring woman, and I am proud of you! Any birthday plans/videos next week? My birthday is the day after yours (I'm wayyy older in years). Gemini's Rock!!
👏Thanks for sharing your knowledge, advice and opinions Venus! Love the channel 💓 Stay blessed and looking forward to more of your great videos 🙏❤️
Thank you! You too!
@@VenusWilliams thanks so much, it's so kind and generous of you to respond to fans messages ❤️ God bless 🙏 Best to you and your family and please let me know some of your favourite songs 🎶 I'd love to do a tutorial for you on my guitar lesson channel! 🎸🎤💕
I thoroughly enjoyed the movie and it’s great to hear your take on it!
I'm a big fan of you Venus since I was a kid in Chile and you were 16 years old. My grandfather loved tennis and told me: "she is gonna be one of the greatest". You playing on the TV was pure joy. A couple of days ago, I watched the film in the flight from Germany to NYC, and brought me into tears. Really beautiful story, and outstanding film. Congrats and thanks for the magic.
I have not seen the movie but really want to but because of covid my husband and I don’t go out much we are in our 70s and he is having chemo so his immune system is low I’m so happy for you and your family that the movie was such a success I have enjoyed watching you and Serena play tennis and have a lot of respect for both of you thank you for this video please keep making them
I watched this movie around three or four months ago. And definitely got so inspired by your family story. So thank you so much. 🖤
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you Venus.
Welcome!
You make absolutely AM🤩ZING videos Venus. It’s like getting a life update from a friend. 🥰
The movie was amazing and it touched me and I usually don't get emotional,but this one got me! 😅Always a fan of William sisters and will always be! 🤩
Loved the film. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Loved it!
I love venus!
loved the movie! inspired me to pick up a racket and now tennis is my new favorite sport!
To be honest it's the best movie, that I've seen in a while. Loved the storyline. Hope we get to see a sequel. ❤️
congratulations God bless you all love the movie 🎬.
I always liked your composure and mental attitude. Apart from your game also, of course.
On your channel I discover even more: your sense of humour, lol, the interesting subjects you propose, like 2 weeks ago how to stick to goals..
Don't stress about wanting to vary the subjects, I think the best is simply to speak about what one likes.
Didn't see the film yet but want to!
Take care.
Amazing movie🥺I understand that I have to fight for my dreams and family is the main in my life ,thank you very much for this❤
I'm glad you like it
It was BEYOND superb. I cried throughout the whole movie. A must see! It was done with such passion, excellence and authenticity. It was a movie that really represented the black community well. V... Serena... sissy's it was AMAZING!!!😭🙏🏾💕🥰😘
I didn't know the story of you and your family. I found the movie to be very inspiring, I loved how the movie made we fall in love with you and your family.
Beautiful story👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Just watched the movie tonight, the best tennis movie so far. So smart King Williams, the spiritual tennis is happening along the movies to the end, long time to see a movie nonstop for me. Awesome one.
Love you V , and S too.
Thanks Will Smith, and the casts.
