Serena Williams has had a roller-coaster journey ever since she announced her comeback earlier this season. She shocked one and all with her sudden decision to retire after the 2022 US Open. Recently, she played the last match of her professional career as her US Open run came to an end with a defeat against Ajla Tomljanovic in the third round. Yesterday, she celebrated her retirement with her family and friends.

The former World Number 1, who was away from the action for close to a year, made a comeback during the grass-court season. Although she lost in the first round of Wimbledon, she put in a great fight against France’s Harmony Tan.
