Venus VS. (2013): Cast

Venus Williams' fight for equal pay in tennis is explored in this documentary. Beginning in 2005, Williams challenged the traditional practice of paying women tennis players less than men at Wimbledon. Inspired by Billie Jean King’s legacy, she campaigned with British Parliament, UNESCO, and media outlets to achieve financial parity. Her impactful op-ed in The London Times helped sway public opinion, and in 2007, Wimbledon finally matched the men’s prize money. That year, Venus became the first women's champion to earn the same as the men's singles winner, Roger Federer, marking a significant moment in sports history.
