Once Again, Serena Williams Proves She’s Royalty

Williams has been in the spotlight since before she was old enough to drive. Now in her late thirties, she has quite the impressive Rolodex going for her.

Actors, musicians, fellow athletes, and other notable figures are constantly by her side and cheering her on at tennis events. After all, she might be the most popular tennis player in the world.

Williams’ passionate domination over the game of tennis makes her a lightning rod for attention across the world. She is more than an athlete at this point:

She is an entertainer, a fashionista, an activist, and a trendsetter. Fans of Williams don’t just love the way she hits the ball across the clay or grass, they love everything about her.While holding such a heavy plate may seem overwhelming, however, Williams does not allow this to affect her game.

Although she has not won a tennis major in over three years, she is consistently taking on competitors half her age and showing them the winner that she is.

With 23 Majors under her belt, the 24th one always seems in reach, even if she hasn’t been able to take advantage.

Even in a world where Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic, and Roger Federer are dominating at similar ages, nobody has the gravitas on the tennis court of Serena Williams. Perhaps, this is why her Rolodex has grown so large. People don’t just want to cheer for her, they want to be her friend.
