Ohh Serena can we ever get over your tenacity and ohhh that gorgeous dark skin that you do well to show off all the time..
She recently spoke with glamour about several issues..
And this quote below just resonates..
Read up her no holds barred interview below..
MELISSA HARRIS-PERRY For Glamour: You have been in our lives a long time, playing pro tennis for nearly 20 years. Is the game still fun?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Yes! When I first started really playing, in ’98, I was super excited to see all the people I grew up watching. … I loved Monica Seles, Steffi Graf, and Pete Sampras. ... Now it is different yet somehow more exciting. Everything now is a bonus.
MHP: You’re one Grand Slam away from tying Graf’s singles record. Do you think about it when you’re playing?
SW: I do. But it’s not the end-all, be-all. It’s something I would like to achieve, but I’ve achieved so much on the court and off already.
You have been called “the world’s greatest athlete.” Do you welcome that label? Does it feel accurate to you?
SW: Oh my gosh, I don’t know. That’s so hard to say. I try to be the best that I can be every day. I have bad days. I had a bad day the other day. I hit for only, like, 30 minutes, and I stormed off the court. But that was the best I could do on that day. So am I the greatest? I don’t know. I’m the greatest that I can be.
