Serena Williams says she does not have any negative feelings towards Maria Sharapova and is surprised the Russian's recent autobiography was so much about her.
Williams described the book as "100% hearsay" and said women should encourage each other rather than detailing locker-room incidents in a less than positive light.
The pair will meet in the fourth round of the French Open on Monday in their first match since the 2016 Australian Open.
Williams has won their last 18 meetings, with Sharapova's only two victories coming in 2004.
And it was the first of those - in the Wimbledon final - that Sharapova believes was the catalyst for Williams' domination since.
