Serena Williams, the 23-time Grand Slam champion, is one of the most skilled players of all time. Many believe that she has every rule and every shot of tennis engraved in her mind. A person is bound to set that analogy when looking at her accomplishment. However, it’s not true.

The lady who participated in tours for over 25 years doesn’t really know the names of the grips of which she is called a master. In a recent interview, she, in presence of Lewis Hamilton, disclosed the same. Williams openly admitted that she simply used what worked for her.

Serena Williams’ game didn’t rely on the specifications of grips and shots

While having a fun conversation during the US Grand Prix, the F1 legend and Williams’ close friend Hamilton introduced the topic of grips. He said, “I was working on the forearm. The western grip.” To which everyone chuckled and then he looked at the former World No 1 and questioned. “You had the Serena grip?” 

“I just hold it and it goes. I never thought about it, I have no idea about it,” a slightly puzzled Williams said. Hamilton has been friends with Serena and Venus for years. He has attended their important matches and vice versa.
