Serena Williams ended her legendary career last week with a third-round defeat of the 2022 US Open. Turning pro in October 1995, the American is almost universally recognized like the biggest ever. Serena Williams’ retirement has sparked a myriad of reactions in every corner of the world.
In a recent interview, Laura Harvey, manager of the OL Reign women’s soccer team, expressed her point of view on Serena’s farewell. She told: “An era is over. Many of the athletes who have accompanied us in the last 15-20 years are retiring.
Serena has shown us what it takes to win at the highest level. Her dedication and her desire to never give up have been contagious and have inspired millions of sportsmen around the world. Her latest match perfectly embodied her essence.”
Serena, who did not want to push her daughter Olympya to tennis, is seeing her daughter become passionate about the NFL, enrolling her daughter in a local team: for this reason Serena has proposed herself for the role of volunteer assistant coach and will be able to help daughter and all other members.
Serena Williams has launched a new wellness brand
The US former tennis star has launched his new brand linked to wellness products. She explained: “Recovery has always played an essential role in my performance. And in my professional success.
It’s a practice that can benefit anyone with an active lifestyle. It’s this belief that inspired us to develop a line of products that target athletes’ muscles. That can be incorporated easily into the daily personal care routine.
Recovery is such an important part of sport. It really is, the main part. As an elite athlete, I’ve always had to recover well in order to be the best. I know what that means. So, I’m really excited about this collection that I’ve put together.
The idea has been in the works for a long, long time.” At the moment, Will Perform is only available in the United States, but it is working to expand internationally.”
