Venus Williams stepped out of a Wimbledon news conference in tears Monday after she was asked about a fatal car crash that involved her earlier this month. Williams was overwhelmed with emotion and stepped out of the press conference, returning later to say she would only answer questions pertaining to tennis. Police say Williams’ SUV was traveling through the intersection at around 5 mph when she collided with the other vehicle. Lisa Barson, 68, told police she had a green light and Williams cut in front of her. Before the tournament started, Williams addressed the crash on her Facebook page.
