Less than a month after announcing that “the countdown had begun”, implying the imminence of her sporting retirement, Serena Williams has undoubtedly put an end to 25 years of career. Beaten by Australian Alja Tomljanovic in the third round of the US Open after a match lasting more than three hours on Friday September 2 (7-5, 6-7 [4]6-1), the American waved to the crowd and burst into tears in an on-court interview.

“Those are happy tears, I imagine. It’s the most amazing trip I’ve been on in my life. I want to thank everyone who has been by my side all these years, starting with my parents“said the player with 23 Grand Slam tournament titles, who did not fail to greet her sister Venus, without whom”she would never have become Serena“.
