  • A key aspect of her game, here are some amazing angles created by #SerenaWilliams to finish of/set up points. My favourite shot of hers in actually the short angle cross court backhand, which can be seen multiple times in this video. Including Kerber, Halep, Sharapova, Azarenka, Henin and more..

      I think she had a good run and should now open a state of the art court to teach others especially her daughter! Don’t wait until your all used up and have lost the passion. So many minorities who are not exposed NEED your talents!🥰 What difference does twenty or thirty of the same award does it freakin matter! Getting older is life it’s what and how you finish your legacy! Do something that has never never been done like BECOMING THE FIRST BLACK WOMAN TO TRAIN THESE mini-me Serena Williams and Venus Williams’s it’s not the money GOOGLE says you have it all make a difference in this world in a different way.

      He was and is an amazing father and coach; unfortunately he seems to have not known the virtue of purity or fidelity as he and Oracene divorced has many children from many women. Still, he cared for his daughters so well, and never gets the appreciation he deserves as the single greatest coach of all time.

      @@lawrencemaweu The curve is what we call Top Spin. Not many women uses a lot of top spins, they prefer a more flat forehand/backhand shot. Even Serena rarely used it but when she does use it, she uses it effectively. Her Top Spins look so beautiful. But recently more and more women are using spins. I think women players are beginning to realize that without a lot of spins, it's hard to be consistent. The 2010s was a disaster because the women are increasingly hitting flatter and harder. New players like Swiatek who uses a lot of spins will benefit from this. I am excited for the future of womens tennis.

    A Serena Willians foi dentro tênis, com o devido cuidado, aquilo que o Mike Tyson foi no boxe. Alguém que colocava pela força uma pressão absoluta sobre suas adversárias até um ponco que elas não suportavam. Mas tal qual o Tyson, suas adversárias a estudaram e descobriram um modo de conter o vulcão que ela trazia no braço e, como acontece com todos, o tempo acabou fazendo algo que ele sempre faz. Traz o acréscimo de peso e as lesões, diminui os reflexos e a agilidade, além é claro, de sempre apresentar adversárias mais novas e mais técnicas. Mesmo que não parecesse para suas adversárias, ela sempre foi humana e dessa forma gravou merecidamente seu lugar na História. Por último uma ressalva: ela não era só uma tenista de força. Ela tinha também muitos golpes. Que o digam suas adversárias.
