Venus Williams obtiene una invitación para el torneo de Washington

Venus Williams ha recibido una invitación para el Mubadala Citi DC Open en Washington. El torneo está programado para comenzar el 25 de julio. La siete veces campeona de Grand Slam ocupa actualmente el puesto 459 del ranking mundial.

La jugadora estadounidense, que vuelve a llamar la atención con otra invitación a pesar del debate constante sobre su estado de forma, ha aceptado la participación para el evento en pista dura durante la gira norteamericana. El año pasado ya participó en el mismo torneo.

Williams ha obtenido ocho invitaciones este año y ha perdido los siete partidos que ha disputado hasta la fecha. Algunos críticos, incluido el exjugador Yevgeny Kafelnikov, han cuestionado estas decisiones, argumentando que las plazas podrían beneficiar a jugadoras más jóvenes.

Defensores como Kim Clijsters, Andy Roddick y Coco Gauff han respaldado a Williams, citando su legado y su capacidad de atracción. Williams ha declarado que la competición la motiva, afirmando que no viaja "para no sentir el fuego".
