Hi, this is Lucy. I'm going to tell you about Venus Williams:
Venus's Journey
Venus has a challenging attiude towards tennis. She is one of the best players in this sport. She is also a dynamic player in this sport. A dynamic player is being swift while doing something. In Venus's mind she thinks that no matter what color that you might be you should get out there play the sport and have fun while doing it.
Venus has proven that you don't have to be in a rich country club to learn to play tennis.
Venus's father, Richard Williams taugh both Venus and her sister Serena Williams on asphalt courts in Compton, Los Angeles where small green weeds grow in the cracks.
She holds the record for fastest server in the history by females: the speed 127.4mph. 100- mile-plus that can counter.
I think she is a great role-model. For one reason she is challenging and determined.
Signing-Out,

Lucy -
Yes she is! Venus came didn't come from wealth yet she is able to prove herself in the sport of tennis. Her and her sister came into the limelight less than 5 years ago (I think) and have really proven themselves! I bet their father is their hero!
I'm glad you have chosen a worthy woman to write about as your hero.

Hi Lucy,
I agree with you! Venus and Serena are two of the most exciting players in tennis. They are both powerful and graceful players; but Venus is my favorite. She moves across the court like a gazelle. I hope both she and her sister continue to stay focused on the game and give the tennis fans years of enjoyment watching them play and win. Have you watched them on television recently? I saw Venus play and win in Australia and she was fabulous.
I'm signing off for now but will write more next time.
