American tennis legend Serena Williams is in a new phase of her life now. Since her early childhood days, all she has done so far is play tennis. However, her life kept moving outside the court. She married and had a daughter, who is now five years old. As Serena mentioned in her Vogue essay, her daughter was a primary reason for stepping away from tennis. It won’t be wrong to say that the legend wants to enjoy her motherhood after retirement.

“Well, I was just afraid I will get distracted. Because I will be like is she drinking? She came to a match once, like super brief and I was like, oh my god, is she wearing sun cream? It’s nuts, so I will get stressed out. I am thinking, oh my goodness, wait a minute, I have got to serve. This makes no sense. So yeah, and I have never really had her to match till last summer, actually,” Serena said.
