‘Won’t Get Burned Out’ – Serena Williams’ Invincible Winning Streak Once Made Chris Evert Retract Her Words From Her Open Letter




Currently, Serena Williams is going through a slump in her career, as she has not won a Grand Slam title in over five years. Interestingly, she faced a similar sort of situation before the 2007 season, as she faced a Grand Slam drought. At that time, American tennis legend Chris Evert criticized Serena for not focusing on tennis, but rather focusing on various off-court commitments. However, Serena made a strong comeback in the 2007 season. After seeing that, Evert took back her words as she praised Serena for her achievements.














Chris Evert once took back her words regarding Serena Williams’ on-court commitment.

Evert said, “It’s opened my eyes not to be judgmental and to each his own. Whatever makes you happy. By having other interests, maybe you won’t get burned out so quickly.”






What did Evert write in the letter to Serena?

“I don’t see how acting and designing clothes can compare with the pride of being the best tennis player in the world,” Evert wrote in her open letter.

In the 2007 Australian Open, Serena beat the world no.1, Maria Sharapova, in straight sets to win her first Grand Slam title after 2 years. Although she did not win any more titles in 2007, she showed good consistency.











Serena's achievements in the next season.


In the next season, Serena won the US Open. Apart from that, she also won the Wimbledon doubles title and the Olympic Gold medal with her sister, Venus Williams.
