Venus and Serena Williams: A bold and audacious promise coming from a father. ~ Olajuwon Obalola

''The world may know only Venus and Serena Williams as the duo superstars of tennis. But the secret to all that success is founded on a strong family culture. And at the hem of it all is their father and coach, Richard Williams, who is ably supported by his wife, Oracene.'

Unless they are the best of actors putting on the best of acts, the Williams family is a stongly bonded unit who view themselves as a corporation working for the whole instead of selfishly for the individual. With the Chief Executive being Richard Williams, the father of Venus and Serena who have both come to dominate the world of tennis.

 They are both ranked in the top 10 in the
world, and the youngest daughters, Venus and Serena, is the number one family in tennis, according to Tennis Magazine.
During their meteoric rise, Venus and Serena have quieted detractors who severely criticized their father's style and language against racism and the importance of education before tennis. Richard eschewed the established traditional system in the raising of his two extraordinary players. With the help of his wife, Oracene, they devised their own method of molding future champions {practice, practice, practice}, while totally ignoring the junior ranks that the tennis establishment advocates. They also simultaneously focused on their daughters' education.
