Tuesday turned out to be a day with mixed emotions at the US Open. While the fans celebrated the victory of Carlos Alcaraza, the heart felt heavily after the legendary Venus Williams collapsed in the first round of the tournament.
Back to Flushing Meadows at the age of 45, Venus bravely fought against Muchovia and forced the decisive set before it bowed 6-3 2-6 6-1.
“I am very proud of how I played,” Williams said, which was defeated in 2023 at 6-1 6-1 at her last US Open.
“I think for me, when I returned to court, it was about having a chance to play healthier,” added Williams, who revealed in 2011 that she was diagnosed with Sjogrena, an autoimmune disease that causes fatigue and joint pain.
“When you play unhealthy, it’s in your mind. It’s not just how you feel.
