Serena Williams has teased that she may continue playing tennis beyond the 2022 US Open. Earlier this month, the 23-time Grand Slam champion penned an emotional farewell letter in Vogue, announcing she will be “evolving away” from the sport she has dominated for so long.

It seemed as though Flushing Meadows would host Williams’ curtain fall tournament, but her recent comments suggest there could still be more to come from her.

Speaking on American breakfast television show Today, Williams discussed the idea of continuing to play after her run at the US Open next month.

The next Grand Slam on the calendar after New York is the Australian Open, a tournament Williams has won seven times — more than any other women’s player in the Open Era.
