Tennis News : You'll never light a candle to me - Venus on press conference pressure

Asked how she has coped with the pressure of press conferences throughout her career, Venus Williams told media on Tuesday: "Every single person that asked me a question can't play as well as I can and never will." The seven-time Grand Slam singles champion was asked the question following Naomi Osaka's withdrawal from the French Open. Venus Williams looked ahead to partnering Cori Gauff in the women's doubles at the French Open after losing her first-round match at Roland Garros for a fourth successive year - Ekaterina Alexandrova winning 6-3, 6-1 on Tuesday.
