Williams announced she was “evolving away from tennis” in a Vogue magazine article that was published on Tuesday morning.
Williams announced she was “evolving away from tennis”“I’m here to tell you that I’m evolving away from tennis, toward other things that are important to me,” Williams wrote. “A few years ago I quietly started Serena Ventures, a venture capital firm. Soon after that, I started a family. I want to grow that family.”
Williams, 40, has won 23 grand slam titles — the most in the Open Era and one short of Margaret Court’s all-time record.Serena Williams in Vogue’s September 2022 issue.Luis Alberto Rodriguez “And I don’t know if I will be ready to win New York. But I’m going to try. And the lead-up tournaments will be fun. I know there’s a fan fantasy that I might have tied Margaret that day in London, then maybe beat her record in New York, and then at the trophy ceremony say, ‘See ya!’ I get that. It’s a good fantasy. But I’m not looking for some ceremonial, final on-court moment. I’m terrible at goodbyes, the world’s worst.
