Williams’ decision is primarily due to family reasons and not necessarily her age as she wants to spend more time with her five-year-old, Olympia, and her husband, Alexis Ohanian.

The couple hopes to have a second child, and she doesn’t want to try to come back from another pregnancy.

The announcement comes following her first win of the season, a two-set victory at the National Bank Open.
