No question, Serena Williams is one of the greatest female athletes of all time. But people often argue that she is, in fact, the greatest of all time. Over 20 years, she showed her dominance on the tennis court, winning 23 Grand Slam titles along the way. Meanwhile, Nike has been a big part of her journey and she always wanted to be a “Nike Athlete”. In a recent social media post, Serena explained her dream of getting her own building at the Nike campus. Finally, her dreams came true, as she got her own building at the Nike campus in Oregon. Later, Serena responded with gratitude after exploring the entire building.

Serena Williams wants people to take inspiration from her own building at the Nike campus

Earlier, the 23-time Grand Slam champion already posted on her Instagram thanking Nike for the amazing gesture. She also posted the video of her entire 1 million square foot building. Incidentally, this is the biggest building for an athlete at the Oregon campus. 

After unveiling her building, Serena said, “The whole building takes your breath away. Every element, everywhere you go, is an opportunity to be inspired. I hope this building encourages people to bring out the best of themselves and to dream bigger than they thought possible.”
