New York, Sep 1: Venus Williams' revelation that she is coping with a rare auto-immune disorder shocked the tennis world, but the seven-time Grand Slam champion insisted she will not quit.
In an interview on ABC's " Good Morning America," the 31-year-old American said she was relieved that doctors had finally diagnosed her Sjogren's Syndrome, a condition in which the body's immune system attacks its own healthy tissues.
"I think I've had issues with Sjogren's for a while," Williams said. "It just wasn't diagnosed.
"The good news for me is now I know what's happening."
