Serena has consistently performed at the top level. Further, major credit for this goes to her physiotherapist, Esther Lee. She traveled with Serena over the years and the two struck a close-knit bond and became good friends. Recently, the American legend announced grim news about her friend.
Serena posted on Twitter to raise awareness.
Along with Serena, Esther was also the doctor for Venus Williams on the tour.
Lee made sure that the Williams sisters stayed away from injuries and had a smooth road to recovery if injured.
Lee has always been by Williams' side.
In 2011, Serena Williams overcame a life-threatening pulmonary embolism before making a stunning comeback to tennis. Her physical therapist, Esther Lee, was one of the people who helped her through those tough times.
Serena's Comeback.
On the tennis front, Serena is aiming to make a comeback later this year. If she gets back to full fitness in time, we might see Serena in action as soon as the Wimbledon Championships.
