Thank You
Hey Guys,

The past couple of weeks have been extremely amazing, encouraging and motivating to me as an athlete, business owner, and writer! I have been able to spend time with my fans of all ages even if for a brief moment during the book signings. I am always amazed by the immense amount of admiration that people hold for me and I am very thankful.



Yesterday, "Come to Win" debuted on the New York Times bestsellers list at #5! I cannot thank you all enough for purchasing “Come to Win” & supporting Kelly E. Carter & myself. Also, The Wall Street Journal listed “Come to Win” as #2 on their sports and recreation list.

Don’t forget to follow me on twitter @venuseswilliams and participate in the question of the day for your chance to win an autographed copy of “Come to Win!” Please, request my fan page on facebook for updates throughout the day to find out if I will be in your city or area! Again, thank you so much for all of your support!

Hope to see you before the tour ends.

Xox, Vee

Heh where are you at fans????
by sky @ Jul 24, 2010 06:11 pm
@Margaret not hating, never will I do that,but his book has some questional things about the sisters such as calling serena ungreatful about certain situations and saying Venus should know better about the outfit she wore to the french open and well I wont say everything but will say that its not cool plain and simple. yes write your book heck I am writing a book but its not my style to bash others just so it can become the next best juicy thing and sell. No that I disagree with.That's my point and I am sticking with it.
by sky @ Jul 24, 2010 06:04 pm
heh fans great to be back. been searching the blogs to see where everyone was at lol but I see you are here. So looks like Venus wont be back until cincy sad but cant wait and hope that she is ready for the Open...regardless rock on Venus rock on
by sky @ Jul 24, 2010 06:03 pm
Thanks Jackie yes I do support them and Venus just is amazing. they both are. Now yes McEnroe has said amazing things about them but also some not so amazing things.I feel you dont have to down another in your profession to make your book sells go up. Ok so the sisters have had their share of ups and downs and have done things some may or may not have approved of but you know what they have shared their talents with us. Venus championed for womens tennis to be just as equal as the men in terms of prize money. both have done great things for tennis but still are being talked about and they are the best tennis players in america and when they are gone then who will step up to the plate? Simply yes I myself feel that if your going to write a book cool, but to diss anyone in it is not cool. Dont even like it when agassi did it to sampras.

Hey sky, glad you back
by Margaret L @ Jul 24, 2010 04:13 pm
Heyheyhey....lets be fair to Patrick McEnroe...the man has had nothing but great things to say about the William Sisters...both John and Patrick...don't hate on him because he has always been a supporter of Vee and Ree!

On the other note....Congratulations Venus on the success of the book! Love that you are getting a chance to meet your fans all over...there are ALOT of people out there rooting for you to win and win big! Hope this is an inspiration to you and all the fans out there...Go Venus!!

p.s hopefully I can meet you one day too lol

by sky @ Jul 23, 2010 12:07 pm
Patrick McEnroe is a joke,Don't like how he used the Williams sisters in poor taste I might add to sell his what he deems book. Pathetic. What's even more pathetic was his career. 1 singles title and he has the nerve to rag on the sisters. Yea ok lol

Hey Vee-

You just dont know how proud I always am of you on and off the court. I root for both you and Serena but at the beginning of every tournament I am your biggest fan in the world. I have missed work and all to watch your matches and take the rest of the day off to either celebrate or be soooooooooo depressed. I wish you the best and I am sure Grand Slam Glory is still ahead for you, but remember you are a legend and still very much the one to beat at anything that you do.
by Stunned @ Jul 19, 2010 05:45 pm
Hey K,don't put my Serebaby out of the US OPEN,she's just hurt and can't play the series but she is shooting for her 3rd grand slam title,I love Venus very much and will be content if she wins the US OPEN but let Serena play too so if Venus misses we still get a Williams fighting,Serena is just out for 3 tournaments,hopefully before August 31st she'll be all right...
Go Vee!!!

tongue Great Job Venus The Book Is Amazing Just Like You!!!! Congrats....
by jackie @ Jul 18, 2010 03:12 pm
smileVee you are my favourite player in the world,you remind me of myself a lot.You appear stoic but you display a range of emotion that very few people pick up.You are a reserved,kind,loving loyal ,classy and principled human being
God bless you in all your endeavours!!!!
by notCommon @ Jul 18, 2010 01:08 pm
Hey seVen/eleVen, u are very graceful Venus in anything that u do. Pls enjoy it! But wisely :) Lots of crooks out there, in life, not on the court. On the court u know how do deal with them, pls be thoughtful about urself, people generally are very jealous to another person success. And u are very successful young woman. Be the Best!
by K @ Jul 18, 2010 11:12 am
smile V good luck with the book it seems to be doing well but let's get to tennis now with Serena out for the US Open I hope u can get a tiger behind you and win this thing. In fact that will a good outfit for you to design for the US OPEN something with leopard.

You need to pratice on your serve and get some come on in you take no prisoners and when you are down it doesn't mean your out fight to win.
by dutchessgp @ Jul 18, 2010 08:22 am
Hi Vee, I follow you and Serena on all the sites and enjoy it. You both have such plesent spirits. People just feel that you both really care about what's going on in their lifes. Praying that you stay safe on your tour. God bless and see you on Twitter. Maybe I'll win the question of the day. smile Dutchessgp

by Evan Ashford @ Jul 17, 2010 09:56 pm
Best of luck during the hard court season and the U.S. Open. You inspired me to play tennis after I watched you play in the 1997 U.S. Open Final. I predict many more majors for you in the future.

Venus I just saw you on the Tavis Smiley show. As always, you're such a delight to watch. There's such a calmness in your voice; and I could listen to you speak all day. I've heard it before; and again tonight that you designed the set of the Tavis Smiley Show which is a great! As discussed I love your Tide commerical; and Tide really is my favorite detergent-and commerical. In fact I have to wash clothes tomorrow-with Tide. Congratulations on the success of your book. I haven't purchased it yet, but I will this week. I hope to meet you in person at the US Open so you can autograph it for me; and who knows, maybe we can hang out after the US Open. Venus you truly are an amazing person with a wonderful spirit; and I'm glad we're "friends" smile
