The tournament means so much to me as well as the things I do in Africa. I thought it could also work well together.
Serena Williams
Image
I'm watching a lot of the football.
Serena Williams
Image
I never thought about leaving a tennis legacy. I always thought about leaving a legacy of fulfillment, living out your dreams, and giving back.
Serena Williams
Image
I don't have anything to prove ever, ever in my life. If I have something to prove, what does that mean for everyone else? And I think everyone should have that attitude.
Serena Williams
Image
My smile is my favorite part of my body. I think a smile can make your whole body. I want women to know that it's ok. That you can be whatever size you are and be beautiful inside and out.
Serena Williams

It's always good to get a smaller tournament under your belt so that by the time you get to the Slams, you have a lot of experience.

I really hope that I can be helpful in that journey because I do believe that women deserve the same pay. We work just as hard as men do. I've been working, playing tennis, since I was three years old. And to be paid less just because of my sex - it doesn't seem fair.

I've had to learn to fight all my life - got to learn to keep smiling. If you smile things will work out.
Serena Williams
Image
I never left my roots. You can identify me as someone that didn't become high and mighty. Humility is a defining [trait] all of us can forever learn, and I try to be as humble as anyone can be.
Serena Williams
Image
I'm like a chameleon. I can kind of change and get my game going to whatever the situation is. If I play well, which I don't think I've even reached yet at all in this tournament, it's really hard for anyone on the women's tour to beat me.

I don't want to be like some of those celebrities walking around, just so full of themselves. I always want to be down-to-earth, want to be a person like when you meet them, they're the same person that you think of them in the article or something.

It's a corset design making me look very, very slim and trim. I call it a corset dress. Very Hollywood glamour with the silk.

Nothing comes to a sleeper but a dream.

I want it to be more natural. Right now it feels really forced. Seems like I've never done a curtsy before, which may be true. But I'm looking forward to nailing it.
Serena Williams
Image
There's one thing I'm really good at, and that's hitting the ball over a net, in a box. I'm excellent.

Victory is very, very sweet. It tastes better than any dessert you've ever had.

It's so great to have that opportunity with so many young American players coming up now. It's just so exciting. We have to root for the home country.
