American tennis star Venus Williams was delighted to see Russian beauty Maria Sharapova at the Met Gala in New York last week. Venus, who posted the above picture with sister Serena and Sharapova on Instagram, said she wished Sharapova was still playing. 


“We were saying with my sister that we would like Maria to still be playing on the tour, and then we saw her at the gala. We were so happy to see each other again, we hugged, laughed, remembered anecdotes and told her we missed her on the court. Then we took the photo. The moral of this story is that even though we fought furiously on the court, years later we still respect each other. And Maria, if you want to come back, do it, because I and my sister care about you,” Venus was quoted as saying by Tennis World USA.
