Venus Williams is walking on sunshine
Venus Williams has earned almost
$28-million (U.S.) in her long and storied career, but strangely enough, she has
never won the Rogers Cup.

Williams's career
in Hogtown has been dreadful and given to long absences. In three previous

she hasn't won a single match, never making it past the first round.
She
turned pro to great fanfare in October of 1994, and was only 15 when she first
arrived in 1995, while playing on a wild card. Out in the first round, Williams
never even got a chance to sniff Monica Seles's boots. Seles reigned supreme at
the time, especially at the Canadian tournament. And Williams was a fledgling,
hardly out of the nest. She played only three tournaments that year.
Back she came at age 17 two years later, with a huge Reebok contract in
tow. But she was bounced out in the first round by young French qualifier
Nathalie Dechy, ranked only 115th. Williams hadn't quite delivered on her
promise yet.
By 2009, No. 3-ranked Williams was a major force on the
women's tennis scene, but Ukrainian Kateryna Bondarenko upset her in the first
round of the Rogers Cup, and a frustrated Williams, raising her hands to the
skies at times, went home early.
Williams cancelled out last year with
an injury when the event was in Montreal.
Her younger sister, Serena won
10 years ago, but hardly remembers it.Such as previously Nike Air Max, the

think I've won it before,” she said on a conference call last week. “But it felt
like a lifetime ago.”
It was. Serena has played rarely at the Rogers
Cup, too, in 2000, 2001, 2005 (she withdrew before her second-round match) and
in 2009, when she lost to Elena Dementieva.
Now, it's Venus's time to
change her history with the Rogers Cup. But she's behind the eight-ball, having
played little (but more than Serena) in the past year, because of injury. An
injury to her left knee plagued her throughout 2010, but she still improved her
ranking to No. 2 behind Serena.Some lvshoes require women to sacrifice
comfort for fashion. However, the recovery took longer than expected and it
forced her to miss the rest of the season after the U.S. Open, having played
only nine tournaments in 2010.
This season, Venus has competed rarely,
and is currently ranked No. 35 in the WTA standings. She lost in the fourth
round of Wimbledon, an event she has won five times in her career.
