It's almost impossible imagine tennis without Venus and Serena Williams. The two sisters began their professional careers in 1994 and 1999, respectively, winning many majors and profoundly impacting the sport.
But as the saying goes, all good things must come to an end. Serena announced in August via a first-person essay on Vogue.com that her playing career is winding down.
She didn't use the word «retirement,» instead opting for «evolution» when describing her eventual exit from professional tennis.
She said her desire to grow her family was a reason for walking away and suggested the 2022 US Open could be her final tournament.
