Cop a gander at Serena and Venus Williams.
The legendary tennis players are the latest superstars to cover Harper’s Bazaar.
Lensed by Renell Medrano, they stun in a series of shots, but give an exceptionally compelling interview as well.
Across the spread, they do not hold back and talk everything from ‘King Richard’ to legacy and so much more.
Peep more pics and quotes inside…
On ‘King Richard’:
“I think King Richard is like Iron Man and that there still are other stories around it. The next, obviously, would be the Venus story, and then there’s always the story about our other three sisters, and then there’s like a mom, and then there’s the Serena story. When I look at it, I see it just encompassing this whole superhero kind of thing.”
On the media’s portrayal of competition between the two:
“Usually in one family there’s one good player and then the other one is not that great. And I think people told Serena she wouldn’t be great. The fearlessness with which she approached the game was something I’ve always really admired. She doesn’t accept second. She explicitly told me herself that she plays for first place.”
On their legacy:
“That’s something I don’t think about nor do I want. I don’t want to think about what I’m leaving. I just think about who I am every single day behind closed doors and behind cameras. And that’s what I focus on.”
