Rob Gronkowski is a man who seems to have been joking for almost everyone. When Gronkowski was still in the service of the New England Patriots as the tight end of quarterback Tom Brady's balls, he also had a small video series in which he disguised himself as a taxi driver, leading people behind the light. The fact that “Gronk” likes to show up on party boats now and again fits into the image of an extroverted man.
On the other hand, anyone who has had the pleasure of attending a press conference with Venus Williams has met a very shy, thoughtful person. Williams usually shows her temperament only on the tennis court, recently also in gymnastics units with colleagues like Grigor Dimitrov or Naomi Osaka or sister Serena via Instagram. And Venus has already done gymnastics with Rob Gronkowski.
Gronkowski comes back - Venus too?
Tomorrow Wednesday, the two star athletes will face each other as captains of two rival teams at the US TV station CBS as part of "Game On". Various sports-related disciplines are on the program. Venus announced at a virtual press conference that it had to leave its comfort zone. Gronkowski, on the other hand, describes the show as a matter in which the participants have a lot of fun because they don't take themselves too seriously.
The NFL star will soon have to forget this approach: after a break from the season, Gronkowski announced his return to active football a few weeks ago. And again he should catch the balls thrown by Tom Brady. From September at the latest in the jersey of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The prospects for this are clearly better than those that Venus Williams can serve at the US Open in New York City at the same time.
