When you step out on the court, I don't think anybody thinks about age. Because if you're out on this tour it means you deserve to be here. You've got the skill. It must mean you know how to play.

More quotes by Venus Williams
Every Olympics is something special. If you're fortunate enough to play for your country - there's just so much energy. It's truly amazing.
Venus Williams
In my mind, I'm always the best. If I walk out on the court (and) I think the next person is better, I've already lost.
Venus Williams
A lot of times when you play... you get this adrenalin that blocks pain.
Venus Williams
If I cared deeply about what people thought of me, I probably would have never made it out of Compton, California.
Venus Williams
My ambition is to enjoy my life and to do exactly what I want to do. And I'll do that. I will be free.
Venus Williams
I think business is the same as tennis. You have to have the love, that helps, or else it's just too much pressure to be able to keep up with.
Venus Williams
Unfortunately the world is what it is now. People don't get along for whatever reason. As professional athletes, in a way we're almost ambassadors for peace, because sports brings everyone together.
Venus Williams
'Oh and Oh' is a tennis term... It's a nice way of saying you took your opponent to pieces.
Venus Williams
Just always believe in yourself. Champions adjust. It's a line I learned from Billie Jean King, and sometimes your dream adjusts. Be willing to adjust with it and see where your opportunities ... sometimes a door closes but a window opens, so just follow your dreams and continue. You never know where it's going to take you.
Venus Williams
For years I felt that I didn't have enough stamina and then, four years ago, I felt like I was not getting enough air but I was diagnosed with exercise-induced asthma. The medicine for asthma never worked.
Venus Williams
The thing about tennis is if you stay off for two weeks, or just for three days, you can lose your rhythm quickly. So it's just a question of constant diligence and vigilance.
Venus Williams
To stay interested in tennis, I have to mix it up with other things.
Venus Williams
I'm this overachiever type, I'll just work and work and I'll just do it over and over and over again.
Venus Williams
It is very important not to think about losing.
Venus Williams
Tennis is mostly mental. Of course, you must have a lot of physical skill, but you can't play tennis well and not be a good thinker. You win or lose the match before you even go out there.
Venus Williams
I guess tennis is my main art, but fashion is definitely very close.
Venus Williams
I am someone who likes to stay positive.
Venus Williams
My goal is always the same: to keep the other player from ever scoring a point. That doesn't always happen, but that's what I try for.
Venus Williams
Whoever is across the net, I want to win. Whoever that person is, that's the day I want to win.
Venus Williams
In the sports arena I would say there is nothing like training and preparation. You have to train your mind as much as your body.
