While the legend achieved almost everything in tennis, there has been a section of fans and tennis players who consider women’s tennis to be lesser than men’s tennis. However, an old video, which caught everybody’s attention, once again validated that her skills and passion have always been unparalleled.

While Serena won almost everything that was there for her to win, people still trolled her that the American can’t stand a male player. However, a video that went viral in 2019 cleared all such doubts. Here’s what happened.

There’s no doubt that the physical build of a man and a woman are different. It is completely illogical to compare the physical strength of athletes from the opposite gender. However, a few fans still did so and ridiculed Serena calling her ineffective against a male opponent.

However, all such claims perished when a video of Serena playing tennis with men came out in 2019. In the video, we can see Serena literally toying with her opponents. While the players facing Serena were not professional tennis players, it sends a clear message that one can’t beat Serena just because he is a man.
