Serena has a total of 73 singles titles on the WTA tour along with three gold medals in doubles and one in singles competitions across three Olympic games.
In September 2022, Serena stepped away from tennis but referred to her hiatus as an ‘evolution’ rather than a retirement.
‘I have never liked the word,’ she wrote in an issue of Vogue. ‘It doesn’t feel like a modern word to me.
‘I’ve been thinking of this as a transition, but I want to be sensitive about how I use that word, which means something very specific and important to a community of people.’
‘Maybe the best word to describe what I’m up to is evolution,’ she continued. ‘I’m here to tell you that I’m evolving away from tennis, toward other things that are important to me.’
Serena and her husband Alexis Ohanian are parents to daughters Alexis and Adira
Sernea revealed that she decided to take some time off to spend time with her family while she and husband Alexis Ohanian tried to have another 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢. Serena, who won the 2017 Australian Open while pregnant, said she did not want to be pregnant while playing again.
‘In the last year, Alexis and I have been trying to have another child, and we recently got some information from my doctor that put my mind at ease and made me feel that whenever we’re ready, we can add to our family,’ Serena wrote then. ‘I definitely don’t want to be pregnant again as an athlete. I need to be two feet into tennis or two feet out.’
Serena and Ohanian have since welcomed their second daughter Adira in August 2023. The pair’s firstborn Alexis Olympia was born in September 2017
