Fans recently reminisced about the last doubles match of Serena Williams’ 27-year-long career. She played with her sister Venus Williams in the US Open 2022 against the pair of Lucie Hradecka and Linda Noskova. They lost the match and disappointed fans were quick to troll Venus for her performance in the match. The Williams sisters were one of the most dominant duos in the history of the sport, winning an incredible 14 Grand Slam titles. Thus, when they face early exits in tournaments, even at the twilight of their careers, fans will be distraught.
