Two amazing sporting personalities who have given their 110% in their respective arenas. Irrespective of adversity and tough situations, they have seemed to find their way to victory. That’s Lewis Hamilton and Serena Williams for you. The consistency and longevity these two champions have maintained in their careers are astounding.

Serena Williams has a lot of similarities with Lewis Hamilton with regard to their struggle in tennis and F1, respectively. Both champions were not from sporting family backgrounds but had highly supportive fathers. Williams has always been a fan of Hamilton and the way he works hard to level up his performance.

Back in 2020, Serena expressed how she is a fan of Hamilton and adores him. She said, “He [Lewis Hamilton] is for me the greatest driver that our generation has seen. I’m confident that he will break the record of Michael Schumacher, who was also a fabulous driver.”

She stated, “Lewis and I are super close. I’ve known him for years. I love that guy. He’s a really good friend of mine. The guy is such a champion, has such a champion’s mindset.”

“I look at what he does training, physically, his job, it’s really no words for it, to be honest.”

The 23-time Grand Slam winner mentioned how Lewis is so ‘intense’ and lives his life on his sleeve. She said, “He’s very emotional. He says what he says, That’s just who he is. He doesn’t care who you are.”

Williams may be speechless about Hamilton’s fitness and training intensity, though she ain’t behind with her longevity on the court for more than 2 decades.

Besides this, the Briton also broke Schumacher’s record for most wins in F1 at the 2020 Portuguese GP. It was Hamilton’s 92nd victory, going past Michael’s 91.

Hamilton is already equal on 7 world championships with Schumacher and awaits a record-breaking 8th. However, Schumacher still holds the record for 5 consecutive world championships during his Ferrari years from 2000 to 2004. Lewis could have held that record if not for Nico Rosberg winning in 2016.

Apparently, it was Schumacher who expected Hamilton to break some of his records when the Briton debuted in 2007. And 15 years later, his prophecy lives on to turn into reality.
