On September 2, at Arthur Ashe Stadium in Queens, New York, fans witnessed the post-match closing of Serena Williams with 29-year-old Aguila Tomljanovic. Serena, 40, finished her game and eventually ended her career. The sports icon bowed after being eliminated 7-5, 6-7 (4/7), 6-1 in the third round of the US Open and gave a touching speech on the court, chanting the name of her sister Venus Williams: "Without Venus, I would not be Serena." She was the only reason Selena Williams existed. She said tearfully to the roaring audience. She also greeted her parents, including father Richard Williams, 80, and mother, Olason Price, 70.
Throughout her tennis career, Selena won 73 singles titles, 23 of which were Grand Slam titles. Add to that four Olympic gold medals, 14 Grand Slam doubles titles (along with sister Venus Williams) and two mixed doubles titles, and it's hard to say that Serena isn't "the greatest ever."
"Some say I'm not a goat because I didn't surpass Margaret Court's record of 24 Grand Slam titles, which she earned before the 'Open Era' that began in 1968," Serena Williams said in the September 2022 issue of Vogue magazine. I had my chance after giving birth to my daughter Olympia in 2017. I went from caesarean section to a second pulmonary embolism to a Grand Slam final. I played while breastfeeding. I played ball in postpartum depression, but I didn't make it. ”
