Serena Williams is easily one of the greatest tennis players of all time. She has 23 Grand Slam titles to her name, and when she was in her prime, she was one of the most dominant athletes in the entire world. Over the last few years, Serena has been battling injuries, and it has led to a decline in performance, which has been a source of sadness for fans who are used to her dominating.
Now, Williams is set to retire following this year's US Open. It is a tournament that is near and dear to Serena's heart, which is exactly why she is choosing this moment to retire. It is going to be an emotional moment for so many, and fans will be rooting for her to beat the odds and win that 24th title.
