It has emerged that Venus Williams’s Florida mansion was ransacked during her unsuccessful run at the third US Open .
Burglars made off with a whopping $400,000 worth of property during the raid at her home in the posh Palm Beach Gardens area.
The city’s police department has confirmed an investigation is ongoing into the burglary, which occurred at an exclusive gated community between September 1 and 5.
Just two days later on September 7 the 37-year-old tennis legend suffered heartbreak when she lost in three sets to eventual champion Sloane Stevens in the semi-finals.
On the positive side she raked a substantial $920,000 in prize money, more than double what she lost in the burglary.
