Okay, so I was digging around the internet, trying to find some cool old sports stories, and I stumbled upon this question: “Did Venus beat Vicario at 14?” I was like, “Whoa, that sounds interesting!” So, I started my little investigation.
My Research Process
First, I Googled it. Plain and simple. I just typed in “Venus Williams vs Vicario at 14” and hoped for the best.
The search results popped up a bunch of stuff, mainly about this movie “King Richard.” It seemed like this match was a big deal in the movie, so I figured it probably actually happened.
I read a few articles summarizing the match. From what I gathered, Venus, at just 14 years old, was playing against a seasoned pro, Arantxa Sánchez Vicario. It seemed like Venus was doing really well, gaining some serious momentum.
- I found that it talked about some, I think, “icing”.
- I saw that Vicario may have took a bathroom break.
- I noticed that It’s important to remeber that I am not an expert.
I learned that, it sound’s like Vicario used a bathroom break as a tactic to throw Venus off her game. Apparently, it worked, because the articles said Venus ended up losing the match.
So, to answer the original question, no, Venus did not beat Vicario at 14. She lost. But it sounds like it was a pretty intense match, and this bathroom break thing might have played a big role in the outcome. I’ll have to do some more research.
