SERENA FIGHTS ON: Tennis superstar dominates to move into next round of US Open
Danka Kovinic, of Montenegro, returns a shot to Serena Williams, of the United States, during the first round of the US Open tennis championships, Monday, Aug. 29, 2022, in New York.
Gayle King, who was on the court to introduce Williams to the microphone, wondered whether Williams was truly going to stay retired as she looked like her old self. "I always got to do the best that I can. I feel so comfortable on this court and in front of everyone here. When I step out onto the court, I just want to do the best that I can do on that particular day," she said."That’s really all I can do."
Williams suggested the U.S. Open at Flushing Meadows in New York City would be her final tournament of her career as she evolved into a new phase of her career.
