As the time is rapidly running out on her singles career, Serena Williams managed to focus and filter out the loud, supportive, celebrity-filled crowd to progress into the second round of the 2022 US Open. At the post-match press conference, the tennis legend decided to stay secretive when answering the question whether this is indeed her last tournament.

Playing the last US Open in her life, Serena Williams defeated Montenegro’s world No.80 Danka Kovinic 6-3 6-3 and improved her perfect record in the first round in Flushing Meadows to 21-0.
