In 2018, Williams returned to competitive tennis only a few months after giving birth to her daughter Olympia in September 2017. Ever since her return, Serena couldn’t win a single title on the tour.

Ivanovic explained that Williams has won so many Grand Slam titles and hence it is not a question of whether she is able to win or not. Instead, it is a question of her ability to overcome her emotional barrier.

“I think with Serena it’s more the thought of winning that extra Grand Slam rather than if she is able to. With Serena, she has made so many Grand Slam finals since giving birth. It’s just the emotional side of making that step and actually winning the title,” Ivanovic told the former World No.7 Barbara Schett on Eurosport.
