Former World no. 1 <keyword id="25683" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="venus-williams" source="Orion">Venus Williams</keyword> is gearing for a comeback during the North American hard-court tennis season. Drawing inspiration from her sister <keyword id="19996430" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="serena-williams" source="keywords">Serena Williams</keyword>, she is determined to make a successful return to the sport. <br /><br />In a recent video shared on her YouTube channel, the seven-time Grand Slam singles champion expressed her aspirations to participate in the <keyword id="13862998" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="wta-1000" source="Orion">WTA 1000</keyword> events in Indian Wells and Miami, considering them "big goals".<br /><br />"One of my big goals is to play United States, to play in the <keyword id="279394" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="miami-open" source="Orion">Miami Open</keyword> and at Indian Wells," Williams said. "I have not played there since 2019 due to injuries. It's a long time... It's a lot of years not to play at home. So that's of course one of my big goals on the horizon, is to be there, prepare to do that. Amongst many goals on the court, too.<br /><br />"My little sister, Serena, told me I'm not allowed to quit, and of course, I would never quit. But it's the mandate. She said no, so I will be back on the court," Venus was quoted by WTA website.<br /><br />In the video, the 43-year-old Williams revealed the challenges she has faced with injuries over the past year and discussed the knee injury that left her hobbling off Centre Court at Wimbledon last summer (she took a fall in the second game of her first-round match against Elina Svitolina) at length for the first time.<br /><br />"I don't talk a lot about my injuries because I hate complaining," she said, but called the cartilage damage she suffered as one of the "craziest" injuries she's tried to play through in her long and storied career.<br /><br />After the early exit at Wimbledon, Williams said the lingering swelling and pain impacted her ability to train and even, sometimes, walk -- in advance of events in Montreal and Cincinnati, as well as the US Open. Despite that, she scored what was then a Top 10 victory over Veronika Kudermetova in Cincinnati, her first Top 10 win in four years.<br /><br />But after that tournament, the swelling in her knee blew up and she was forced to withdraw from the WTA 250 event in Cleveland, where she had intended to play as a wild-card entry.<br /><br />"I felt terrible about that, because when I give my word, I keep it. When I said I was going to Cleveland, I meant it, and the fact I had to withdraw, I felt miserable because that's not me. I do what I say I'm going to do."<br /><br />In an effort to play the US Open, Williams revealed she had a cortisone injection for the first time in her three-decade career, but it did little to help. Her season eventually ended with a 6-1, 6-1 loss to Belgian qualifier Greet Minnen in the first round, the heaviest defeat she ever suffered at her home Grand Slam event.<br />

Rothenberg is explicitly skeptical of the man and his claims, but the piece is nevertheless illuminating and deserves to be read in its entirety because it sheds light on the sketchy figures lurking on the fringes of the sport. </p><p>One especially noteworthy section comes when this man tells Rothenberg about the different prices a tennis player might make for throwing a match, or a set, or a point, and so forth. </p><p>From Rothenberg:</p><p class="story-body-text story-content" style="padding-left: 30px;" data-para-count="248" data-total-count="4423">He also claimed to know the rough prices of various fixes on the menu, which I couldn't independently corroborate. Buying a service break at a Futures event cost $300 to $500, he said. A set was $1,000 to $2,000, and a match was $2,000 to $3,000.</p><p class="story-body-text story-content" style="padding-left: 30px;" data-para-count="151" data-total-count="4574">It was more expensive to fix an outcome on the next tier, the Challenger level, with sets and matches running in the $10,000-to-$15,000 range, he said.</p><p class="story-body-text story-content" style="padding-left: 30px;" data-para-count="103" data-total-count="4677">On the ATP and WTA Tours, a single set could cost $25,000. A match was in the neighborhood of $100,000.</p><p class="story-body-text story-content" data-para-count="103" data-total-count="4677">Many of the tournaments in which this man alleged to Rothenberg that match-fixing was taking place were tournaments with very little prize money between players even the most devout tennis fans wouldn't ever recognize. Even Rothenberg, arguably the most well-informed tennis journalist working today, didn't recognize many of the players' names.</p><p class="story-body-text story-content" data-para-count="103" data-total-count="4677">Still, the stench of match-fixing has been strong at the Australian Open.</p><p class="story-body-text story-content" data-para-count="103" data-total-count="4677">Not long after <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/bombshell-report-finds-evidence-of-widespread-match-fixing-in-tennis-2016-1">BuzzFeed and the BBC published</a> a bombshell report of match-fixing prior to the start of the tournament, the New York Times reported that a <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/new-report-of-match-fixing-at-2016-australian-open-2016-1">popular betting website had suspending activity</a> after an unusually large swell of betting activity came in prior to a seemingly random first-round mixed-doubles match of the Australian Open.</p><p>Lleyton Hewitt, the former world no. 1, <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/lleyton-hewitt-denies-match-fixing-allegations-2016-1">furiously denied</a> allegations that he was among the anonymous players linked to match-fixing by BuzzFeed and the BBC. <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/novak-djokovic-was-offered-200000-to-fix-a-tennis-match-2016-1">Djokovic said</a> in a press conference that he was once offered $200,000 to throw a match. <a href="http://edition.cnn.com/2016/01/26/tennis/tennis-match-fixing-anti-corruption/">Tennis officials announced</a> an independent body would investigate allegations. </p><p>Each subsequent report and story that has come out about match-fixing in tennis has resulted in more confusion than clarity on the issue. One problem is that the phrase "professional tennis" blankets hundreds of thousands of matches taking place on many different levels all over the world.</p><p>Match-fixing at a Futures event or ATP Challenger Series tournament might very likely occur with regularity, but is roughly the equivalent of something similar happening in low-level minor league baseball game. This is (obviously) still unethical and illegal, but a lot different than a match in the main draw of Wimbledon. Many players and writers have wondered if the scandal has deserved the attention it's received.</p><p class="story-body-text story-content" data-para-count="103" data-total-count="4677">With point-per-point betting happening across the world, on matches in bottom-tier Futures tournaments where a first-round loser would collect as little as $98, is it any wonder that match-fixing is occurring? And is there any way of stopping it?</p>    <div class="margin-top">        <h3>NOW WATCH: <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/8-facts-about-serena-williams-maria-sharapova-us-open-tennis-2015-8">8 mind-blowing facts about Serena Williams</a></h3>        <div>            <div>    <script src="http://player.ooyala.com/v3/6e12e8b3387a44daacfb73afba25a76e"></script>    <div class="ooyala-video-player" data-video-autoplay="false" data-video-id="NoNmthdzr9gKjdKi9tqKeQnunSHTimfb" data-player-variable="ooyalapopvideo" id="ooyalaplayer_popvideo" style="width:1280px;height:720px"></div>    <script>    if (typeof RunFunctions === 'undefined') { var RunFunctions = []; }     RunFunctions.push(function()    {         var ooyalapopvideo = OO.Player.create('ooyalaplayer_popvideo', 'NoNmthdzr9gKjdKi9tqKeQnunSHTimfb',{ autoplay: 'false' });     });    </script>    <noscript><div>Please enable Javascript to watch this video</div></noscript></div>        </div>        <script>(function() { function createPlayer() { OO.ready(function() { RunFunctions.forEach(function(ooyalaFunction) { ooyalaFunction(); }); RunFunctions = [];}); } createPlayer(); }()); </script>    </div>
