After Reppin a Suave Tribute to Idol Serena Williams, Will Frances Tiafoe Look to Persist With the ‘GOAT’ Tradition at 2023 US Open?

Serena Williams may have hung up her boots, but the legacy she left behind will always continue to shine. And now this will be the first time that the 41-year-old American tennis legend will not be a part of the US Open after her retirement last year. She got several tributes from the tennis world last year, but Frances Tiafoe‘s GOAT homage stood out from the rest.

Now that the US Open for this year is rapidly approaching, let’s look at the tribute and what the 25-year-old American tennis star had to say about the same. Wait, that’s not the main worry; the real question is whether he will repeat this feat this year or not.

Will Frances Tiafoe’s GOAT tribute repeat for Serena Williams?

The 10th-seeded tennis player previously stated that Serena Williams was the prime reason behind the success that he achieved at the US Open last year. Well, last year, to honor the 23-time Grand Slam champion’s contribution to American tennis, he wore a GOAT hoodie and praised the tennis legend for her achievements.

He said, “Obviously the goat, #SerenaWilliams. She’s definitely the reason why I think I can do the things I’m doing. … She’s on a different stratosphere.”

While the former world number one has inspired a lot of young tennis players to take up tennis, Tiafoe is also one of them who is ready to carry the torch for American tennis.

But as this year’s last Grand Slam tournament approaches, the biggest question is whether the 2022 US Open semi-finalist will repeat the GOAT feat for Williams. Whether he will don the GOAT sweatshirt once more or maybe he will find another method to honor the legendary American tennis player while he is in New York.

Well, it was the same hoodie that the 41-year-old American tennis legend released as a part of her new clothing collection from S by Serena. Not only that, before this tribute, he also came in with a doting request for the GOAT hoodie from the legend herself.

When Tiafoe requested a gift

Before the US Open last year, when the 23-time Grand Slam champion shared the new GOAT hoodie from her collection on her Instagram account, she got a special customer from the tennis world. And it was none other than Tiafoe who requested the same attire as a present.

The US Open semi-finalist at that time took to his Instagram stories to share the hoodie and wrote, “I need one.” To which the former tennis legend replied, “I GOT YOU BRO.” 

Subsequently, a few weeks after that, he was seen wearing the same as an honor to Serena Williams. It will be great to see if Tiafoe repeats the same effort as last year. What do you think? Pen down your thoughts in the comment section below.
