1 and seven-time major singles champion Venus Williams said she was uncertain about her future beyond the upcoming US Open but teased she wasn't done with the sport just yet.
"I'm very much in the moment," Williams said when asked about next season.
She added she had been surprised by the attention the false announcement of her receiving a wild card to Indian Wells in March had gotten.
Williams made her professional debut in 1994 and won her first major singles title at Wimbledon in 2000.
643, Williams will play Jessica Bouzas Maneiro in the first round at the Cincinnati Open.
