These Athletes Have Single-Handedly Changed The Way We See Women In Sports!

1939

30. Venus Williams, Tennis

Talk about a superfamily of strong female athletes. Serena Williams may be among the greatest of all time (okay, she’s just the greatest), but don’t think her sister, Venus Williams, is living in her shadow. Venus has also spent time at a No. 1 world rank and has essentially lived in the top 10 for female tennis players.

Venus has done more than simply hold her own. She has won the second-most singles titles, behind only her sister. Add in all of her doubles titles – she even won two of her four Olympic golds in singles and doubles the same year – and Venus’ accolades are simply staggering.
