Williams is undoubtedly one of the finest tennis players of all time. The kind of consistency she has showcased throughout her career is unmatchable. Appearing on the podcast, Pam Shriver lauded Serena’s long list of achievements.

Shriver said, “It’s the hunger to win, it’s the willingness to be out in the biggest moments in all on your own and be able to produce. And that sounds like more people should be able to do that. But to be able to be Serena Williams with her quality throughout the body of her entire career in semis or majors, in finals of major, time and time and time again –  99.9% can’t do that.”
