Global star Venus Williams has won 7 major Grand Slam singles titles, in addition to 14 doubles titles alongside her sister Serena Williams, and has earned 3 notable Olympic medals, making her one of the greatest tennis players in history. At 45 years old, she remains a living global sports icon inspiring new generations.

Beyond her athletic achievements, Venus Williams is known for her efforts advocating gender equality in sports. She has called on Wimbledon and other major tournaments to offer equal prize money to men and women. Mattel states that this aspect of her career was a key reason for honoring her in the Barbie “Inspiring Women” series, which celebrates pioneering women throughout history, according to mymodernmet.

The Venus Williams doll depicts her famous all-white outfit worn in the 2007 Wimbledon final, her fourth title at the tournament. Designed with great care by Carlyle Nuera, the doll includes the details that made Venus an icon of elegance on the court: the full white outfit, the green jeweled necklace, the double-belted top, long braided hair, and the white face mask she wore. The doll also comes with a tennis racket and ball to complete her realistic sporty look.

The Venus Williams doll is made “to move,” equipped with full joints allowing fans to pose her in serving, running, or celebrating stances. The doll’s outer packaging features a special design by Charis Seneserous, depicting Williams on the court. On the back of the box is an inspiring quote from Venus: “You have to believe in yourself even when no one else does, that’s what makes you a winner in that moment.” The doll is now available through the Mattel Creations online store and Target stores, as part of the Barbie Inspiring Women collection.
