Williams and King looked at a few photos in a book, which featured Serena and Venus Williams playing a few groundstrokes on the court as King watched on. In a series of short videos posted by Venus Williams on her Instagram Stories, the two greats of the sport remembered their first meeting. King also revealed that she vividly remembers the time as she was taking medication for heart treatment back in the day, much to Williams' shock.

You were going through volleys, you went first and Serena went after you," King said. The 12-time Grand Slam singles champion then revealed that there were over 1200 kids across multiple courts during a very busy day. Williams then said with a chuckle that two out of those 1200 kids stood out, the two being her and sister Serena, and King agreed to that sentiment.
