Serena Williams talks about her retirement
A legend of the sport in every right, Serena said that she is not looking for the ‘R-word’ at the moment. The forty-year-old has played for over 25 years on the tennis court. Though some injuries kept her out for some time, she always made successful comebacks and defeated her opponents convincingly.
“I think every tennis player thinks of the R-word as soon as they hit five years. (laughs) Because it’s so intense. It’s literally 11 months out of the year. But, um, I don’t know, I’m living for the day. I’m always telling people that I’m not playing for tomorrow only in business”
