After being a tennis fan for over a decade now, this is the first time I witness a legendary player retiring from the sport and made a huge impact on me. When Henin, Sharapova, Clijsters retired, I felt sad because they've been amazing players but I'm sadder seeing Serena finally hanging up her rackets. Now I must prepare for my all-time favorite Roger Federer retiring anytime soon. Roger and Serena are my all-time favorite players. I was lucky enough seeing Serena in Doha in 2013.
so much greatness in tennis. serena an absolute legend. i feel you. been watching tennis since forever and this one feels like time stopped cause she is without a doubt the female goat
As a fan of tennis for 30 years of my life. I’ve seen tennis stars come and go but non had the same impact as Serena and Venus Williams. Their story is groundbreaking and inspiring. Thank you to the Williams family for sharing their daughters with us. Bravo
This is so very true. Watching this has me in tears. I've watched this 8 times already. What an amazing journey she has had. She's not done she just beginning!!❤
I feel this in my chest🥺 We will miss her deeply!! My whole life she and Venus have been playing so to see her go is tough. So so so very proud of what she’s accomplished and who she’s become🙌🏾
A few months ago,I watched a movie “Dream plan ”which was based on her family’s history. Now, I think it is the greatest chapter of her family’s final dream plan. It’s very sad that we couldn’t watch Serena play, but I’d like to congratulate her and her team’s greatest career. Thank you,Serena!
Such an emotional speech. It must be incredibly satisfying to see yourself grow in your career and retire comfortably with the same energy and so much life ahead.
Seeing Venus wiping away those tears at 1:41 😢 😢 Thanks, Serena. You’ve changed the face of tennis. You’ve made little boys and girls of different ethnicities feel they could play tennis and thrive. You. Have. Made. Your. Mark. Be proud. Your fans thank you.
Very few people in this life are immediately recognized by only one name. Serena, Beyoncé, Oprah,Obama, Tiger etc She completely changed this game, I'm from Kenya and before Serena, I never watched tennis. There's millions of us who became fans solely due to her. The greatest! GOAT.
@@Polarcupcheck lol as if a fake account can write all that. I named the people above because they are American like Serena. I know Shaq but most Kenyans don't. Over here Michael Jordan, Kobe and LeBron are the most popular basketballers. When it comes to football ofc I know Pele (the greatest) and people like Messi,Maradona etc.
What an amazing career. Like all her supporters I’m going to miss Serena and her powerful energy. Also credit to her opponent. Ajla gave a great speech at the end and paid a wonderful tribute to Serena. 👏❤️
Thank you serena for such beautiful memories..you are the reason i became a fan of tennis..started watching tennis from 2007 because of serena..the way she won australian open in 2007 made me diehard fan..
Thanks Serena ❤️ Happy tears😭😭😭 Ever since I started enjoying tennis, playing tennis as a kid, you've always given me strength along the way.💪 Whether it is the perseverance on the field, not giving up until the last moment, or the courage to reverse the opponent You have not only inspired us, you have also empowered us to understand the definition of "persistence". 27 years!!! Thank you for being with us for 27 years❤️ Many people can't reach the pinnacle of life at this age, but you have created countless legendary moments and won countless championships.🏆 There are always ups and downs in our life, Your legendary career has also brought us to witness the fall from the peak to the bottom, and from the bottom to reach the championship again. As long as the game is not over, there is still hope for a comeback victory! Life is the same. As long as you are still alive, you will have the opportunity to create miracles, and you must not give up easily! What makes your career great is not only that you have created various tennis records, won the most championships or world number one But you continue to inspire us❤️ You let everyone know: No matter what your background, no matter what you've been through, as long as you don't give up, you can keep going. You may gain something in the process, or because your spirit has inspired someone or changed something, But as long as there is hope, anything can happen. Because 41 years ago, no one would have believed that two little girls from the slums could write a brilliant record and inspire many people 41 years later. "Never give up 'cause you never know what can happen-you never know who you can inspire and who you can influence." Thanks Serena Williams ❤️ Wish you all the best. Thank you for everything you bring to us. And for sure LOVE Venues too❤️ Thanks for you 2 GOAT LEGEND QUEEN SERENA 🏆
I must admit that I cried watching this. I started to play tennis a bit late, at 19 yo. By then, Serena was just a teenager with brace on her teeth and those beads. She was still under the shadows of Venus, who already had established herself as a huge name in tennis. At that time, people, including myself, only knew her as "the little sister of Venus Williams". And I still remember reading the Tennis magazine in which Richard Williams said, "Serena will be even better than Venus". After watching her playing against Hingis, I never doubt she will be. She already had the complete skills: serves, ferocious forehand and backhand, excellent net game, superior athleticism and footworks, and of course, the legendary mental toughness. No reason to doubt her father prediction. And I grew up (tennis wise) watching Serena, Venus, Roger play, trying to emulate their techniques (without prevail, of course, LOL). I follow their careers for years, for every single grand slam milestone they achieved. And here she is, blossoming the be Greatest Tennis Player. Watching the greatness from the beginning to the end is great experience. And now she (and Venus) retire from tennis, I already miss them so much. We sometimes easily take something for granted, only to realize how precious its existence. Watching Serena playing tennis is a sight to behold, and she had entertained us for thousands of times. And now you can only watch her playing professional tennis on recording. You can always buy tennis tournament tickets, but you will never be able to see Serena Williams plays live in front you again. 🥲
CRYING!!!!! 😭🥺😭 THANKS SERENA FOR ALL THE INSPIRATIONS YOU SHOWED THE WORLD! PROUD TO HAVE LIVE IN YOUR ERA FOR ALL OF THIS. WE WILL MISS YOU QUEEN AND THE ONE AND ONLY GOAT!!! ❤️
She is a real role model, an exemple and an inspiration !! She deserves all the love she's getting on that court and more... Thank you for everything Serena !
Yo siempre cuando me dicen a quién admiras del mundo del deporte siempre miro al tenis y digo:Nadal,Federer y Serena Williams a la par,gracias por todo maestra,tú impulsaste también mi amor por este deporte.
Watching greatness retire was emotional. She's a phenomenal athlete who has had an exceptional career. I will truly miss watching her play she's the reason I started watching tennis. We will miss you Serena.
We have witnessed the end of the career of the greatest woman to ever play tennis. Serena Williams, your father called it. And you delivered. A little Black girl from Compton did it. Thank you!

It has been a unique and incredible journey: Thanks for the great memories, We'll miss you so much. We wish you and your family the best. Luckily there are still so many players on the tour who have been inspired by you.
We are so happy you shared your great talent with us Serena, so sad to see you retire 😭. I wish you the best of luck on your future endeavors. You deserve it!
Congratulations Serena you have worked incredibly hard over the last 25 years it's been so entertaining you are the greatest female tennis player 🎾 of all time. 🙏
@@steinanderson You can cut that by at least 25%. When you realise she faced no real competition other than a pre-stabbing Monica Seles, and old Navratilova. This is why her grand slams post-93’ has big asterisk on it. Also she started incredibly at 13 years old so it makes sense she retired quite young.
Strength of this woman, the determination, the grit, the tenacity- changed the landscape of tennis. Forever grateful Serena Williams.😇😇😇🥰🥰🥰🥳🥳🥳❤❤❤💋💋💋💪💪💪🐐🐐🐐
The end of an era what a great finish 👏 👌 I couldn'thold backmy tears😢. You will be forever missed in the world of tennis and women's sports in general.
To me, the most pointed thing she said was, 'I just started getting better, this year. I should have been playing earlier'. Lack of real game time hurt her. She knows how it works. The words of a true champion.
@@ezelegui7901 ninguno de ellos gano 4 medallas de oro, 23 titulos de grand slam, 14 en dobles con su hermana, 319 semanas como numero 1, ahí tenes la ecuacion pelotudo
Your talent has spoken and still can speak for itself. But, beyond your superior skills on the court has been your character. The opposition you have faced and yet over and over you have prevailed. You make me proud as a woman, as a human kind, as a sports person, as a mother, as a defender of you ethnic pride, as an entrepreneur and more. My heart fills.
I cried like the day Kobe died. But, True Legends Live On. Even in retirement, she'll be the epitome of dominance, grit and sheer sacrifice. Thank U Serena ❤️
She is the inspiration of all woman,,all over the world,she deserves a Nobel We can't imagine how mentally, physically strong she is, True Lengend Forever ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
Her accomplishments are similar to several past female champions. Second, she can be one of the greatest female athletes, but not one of the greatest period. Do you not understand the enormous difference.
Una de las mejores atletas y tenistas ( hombre o mujer) de todos los tiempos. Hubo un antes y un después en el tenis femenino con la llegada de Serena ( y de Venus), 23 Grand Slams en individuales, 14 GS en dobles, medallista olímpica, una inspiración para las generaciones de tenistas femeninas que vinieron después ella y también para las mujeres. Su último partido es un reflejo de su esencia, luchar hasta el último momento, nunca darse por vencida. Definitely THE GOAT.
I shed happy tears with you, Serena. Because of you and Venus I started watching tennis. Thanks for all that you have done for tennis, especially showing young black girls that they too can become tennis champions. I am especially grateful that you and Venus did not cave in or crumble when you were told, in so many ways, time after time, that you did not belong to that sport. Both you and Venus have created a history that cannot be matched or erased. Thank you. Go now and train your daughter and other young girls. ❤❤❤
Serena and Venus gave little black girls hope. I Remember how the tennis community treated them in the beginning, Indian Wells, Ca was brutal to them, glad they persevered. Serena enjoy your next adventure.
Grew up hearing Serena and Venus, and grew up watching them 🎾says a lot about their impact around the world. Oh Serena thank you 😊 😭 you are phenomenal tennis player and the greatest ❤ 🙌 💙 miss you
@M Soccer and Tennis are different. Tennis is most popular in individual sports, and popular in many countries. Even in some countries, people know more about Tennis than Soccer.
@@anoop5660 I play and watch tennis a lot. but i must say tennis is not THAT popular worldwide. You only need to take a look at the kinds of sponsors and advertising for tennis events. The target group is fairly small. Even under individual sports: motor sport, boxing, 100m dash are also very popular...
THANK YOU MISS SERENA WILLIAMS THANK YOU. Many years ago in Africa, I used to wake up 3 o'clock in the morning to watch Serena play on Satellite TV. I had the most exciting experiences watching you play and beat all those girls. We love and thank you for your services.
I cry too....she is a Living Legend.. THANK U SERENA WILLIAMS AND THANK U FOR THE BEAUTYFULL MEMORIES AND YEARS OF BEING ON TOP OF THE WORLD.... THANK YOU ❤❤❤🙏👍🎾
Such Grace. What an amazing woman and champion. Her impact immense on so many levels. Congratulations to Serena! I know so many amazing accomplishments yet to come!
Grace?!...you mean , like a truck with disfiguring cosmetic surgery can be graceful...euh, im not convinced...ok, tears make people more human, that's true...
She didn’t show grace when she threatened to shove a ball down a lines woman’s throat or when she ruined the atmosphere when Osaka won her first major. She’s an amazing tennis player, but if you want to see grace you need to look to Roger or Rafa.
Con todas las fuerzas en contra, perseverar. Jamás doblegarse. Mostrarse fuerte atrae el auxilio de los dioses, Serena Williams eres la perseverancia en persona, extrañare ver tus partidos ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Win or lose even though Serena didn't go all the way to win another Championship she's still GOAT of tennis no matter what the outcome is👏. I'm glad I got witness Serena in her prime growing up watching tennis along with Venus. Thank you for everything Serena what u did for sport of tennis! I can't wait to see what the future holds for more younger women in their primes right now like Leylah Fernandez, Emma Raducanu, Ajla Tomljanović, Coco Gauff, and especially Naomi Osaka who's still in her prime right now. The future looks bright for these younger generations to step up after Serena🤟💜🎾
A lot of great players have retired previously, but she is absolutely in a total different class. Nobody's statistics compare with hers, including all great male players. I wish her well
You said her statistics are the best, including men. That does not matter. By the estimate of John McEnroe, there are currently about 700 men who could beat her. Against Djokavitz, she could not even complete a match, much less win.
Love you, Serena. I am an old person. All my life I have not seen a tennis player, male it female, like you. Thank you, Serena and wish you all the best with your wonderful family 🌹❤️🌹
Farewell to the absolute legend that changed the game of tennis. Serena the absolute goat. There will never be anyone like the two sisters. The best tennis player of all time
Totally agree. But, while we were able to see Serena go out in style, tennis fans around the world were not able to watch Djokovic because he did not take the jab. I am embarrassed for this country in denying him the opportunity to complete.

I am especially grateful that you and Venus did not cave in or crumble when you were told, in so many ways, time after time, that you did not belong to that sport. Both you and Venus have created a history that cannot be matched or erased. Thank you. Go now and train your daughter and other young girls. ❤❤❤
Serena and Venus gave little black girls hope. I Remember how the tennis community treated them in the beginning, Indian Wells, Ca was brutal to them, glad they persevered. Serena enjoy your next adventure.
GOAT.. fantastic career.. all the best! 🎾🇳🇿
Second, after Margaret Court.
Legendary Champion !
We'll miss Serena 💖💖💖💖💖
Grew up hearing Serena and Venus, and grew up watching them 🎾says a lot about their impact around the world. Oh Serena thank you 😊 😭 you are phenomenal tennis player and the greatest ❤ 🙌 💙 miss you
I liked how Serena thanked her parents. Give them their 🌺 while they’re still here 🙂.
Yeah she was probably the greatest female player ever maybe ahead of Graf aswel imo.
Probably, maybe??? These words does not go in a sentence with Serena and GOAT status... 😆
@M Soccer and Tennis are different. Tennis is most popular in individual sports, and popular in many countries. Even in some countries, people know more about Tennis than Soccer.
Stefi had so much more character.
@@steveborst5386 I agree with you.
@@anoop5660 I play and watch tennis a lot. but i must say tennis is not THAT popular worldwide. You only need to take a look at the kinds of sponsors and advertising for tennis events. The target group is fairly small. Even under individual sports: motor sport, boxing, 100m dash are also very popular...
Never thought i would feel this sad like This. Such an icon.
The two most iconic sisters in tennis 🎾 history.
Hats off!! 👏👏
Thanks always for your great and truly hard and HEART work in your carrer Serena. You’re the best Sport woman in the WTATP
THANK YOU MISS SERENA WILLIAMS THANK YOU. Many years ago in Africa, I used to wake up 3 o'clock in the morning to watch Serena play on Satellite TV. I had the most exciting experiences watching you play and beat all those girls. We love and thank you for your services.
THE GREATEST !!! UNQUESTIONABLE THE GREATEST!! THANK YOU , SERENA FOR ALL,,,AND EVERY YEAR OF PLAYING FOR THE WORLD!!!
My soul hurts cause I’ve watched her forever 😍 I can’t be selfish enjoy your retirement!!!
Легенда тенниса,супер теннисистка,номер один теннисистка за всю историю тенниса!
In women's tennis
I cry too....she is a Living Legend.. THANK U SERENA WILLIAMS AND THANK U FOR THE BEAUTYFULL MEMORIES AND YEARS OF BEING ON TOP OF THE WORLD.... THANK YOU ❤❤❤🙏👍🎾
Her voice got so hoarse. And she still continued. What a journey full of emotions and sheer hardwork
Just go ..far far away please gooooooooooooo .Thank you
Agree. Go away Sir Rena!
just a little girl from compton ❤️ you’ll be missed S ❤️❤️ thank u for everything
Hard to digest. Don't know if I wanna see Federer on basilea yet. Best wishes for her
Such Grace. What an amazing woman and champion. Her impact immense on so many levels. Congratulations to Serena! I know so many amazing accomplishments yet to come!
Grace?!...you mean , like a truck with disfiguring cosmetic surgery can be graceful...euh, im not convinced...ok, tears make people more human, that's true...
She didn’t show grace when she threatened to shove a ball down a lines woman’s throat or when she ruined the atmosphere when Osaka won her first major. She’s an amazing tennis player, but if you want to see grace you need to look to Roger or Rafa.
Thank you very much for sharing your journey with us! You will always be a part of my family. I will miss watching excellency on the court. ❤️
You are insprisnal for us love you ma'am love from India 🇮🇳
I am not fun of tennis but Serena make me smile and proud.
Con todas las fuerzas en contra, perseverar. Jamás doblegarse. Mostrarse fuerte atrae el auxilio de los dioses, Serena Williams eres la perseverancia en persona, extrañare ver tus partidos ♥️♥️♥️♥️
സറീന യുഗം അവസാനിക്കുമ്പോൾ.... ഒരുപാട് സങ്കടം...ഗ്രേറ്റ് സറീന 🌹
Win or lose even though Serena didn't go all the way to win another Championship she's still GOAT of tennis no matter what the outcome is👏. I'm glad I got witness Serena in her prime growing up watching tennis along with Venus. Thank you for everything Serena what u did for sport of tennis! I can't wait to see what the future holds for more younger women in their primes right now like Leylah Fernandez, Emma Raducanu, Ajla Tomljanović, Coco Gauff, and especially Naomi Osaka who's still in her prime right now. The future looks bright for these younger generations to step up after Serena🤟💜🎾
A lot of great players have retired previously, but she is absolutely in a total different class.
Nobody's statistics compare with hers, including all great male players.
I wish her well
You said her statistics are the best, including men. That does not matter. By the estimate of John McEnroe, there are currently about 700 men who could beat her. Against Djokavitz, she could not even complete a match, much less win.
Hermosa siempre con la familia a todos lados un ejemplo
Interestingly Mary Jo Fernandez who interviews her here won their only encounter in the 3rd Round at Roland Garros in 1999 ...6-3, 1-6, 6-0 !
You gave it all Serena 👑 We've been lucky to witness your tennis career over all those years 🎾🙌
Love you, Serena. I am an old person. All my life I have not seen a tennis player, male it female, like you. Thank you, Serena and wish you all the best with your wonderful family 🌹❤️🌹
Eine Legende wir dich vermissen serena du Hast fur den tennissport viel getan eine Legende so viel geleistet unglaublich danke serena 😪😪

Thank you Serena. Thank you Venus.
More love ❤️ and more power to you The Queen Serena….
Thanks Serena you set the bar respect to you wishing you all the best for the future
Thank you for everything ❤️❤️. I will cherish for ever
Maraming Salamat Serena! ❤️💚🇵🇭🏆🎉
Watching at 1:40 and seeing Venus breaking down and crying is when I lost it. 😭
Farewell to the absolute legend that changed the game of tennis. Serena the absolute goat. There will never be anyone like the two sisters. The best tennis player of all time
HAPPY RETIREMENT TO YOU ENJOY YOUR FAMILY NOW DONT WANT TO SEE YOU GO YOUR THE GREATEST SERENA AND VENUS 👑👑🌷🎈🌹🎈🌹
Serena Williams and Novak Djocovic you have become a role model for the new generation.
Totally agree. But, while we were able to see Serena go out in style, tennis fans around the world were not able to watch Djokovic because he did not take the jab. I am embarrassed for this country in denying him the opportunity to complete.
Thank you for all the memories!
Maior jogadora dá história dó tênis mundial serena William e vai ficar na história dó tênis para sempre
