So she’s not on the court anymore. Big deal. Because Serena Williams is out here conquering life like it’s just another Grand Slam final — and spoiler alert: she’s not dropping sets.
Since stepping away from pro tennis, Serena has only gotten louder, richer, stronger, and more iconic (minus the net cord drama). Fans thought she’d slow down. Instead, she’s out here casually launching venture capital firms, dazzling at fashion week, and whispering motivational spells into her daughter Olympia’s ear like a real-life fairy queen.
Tennis? Still in her orbit. She’s mentoring rising stars, dropping in at tournaments, and occasionally picking up a racquet “just for fun.” And when Serena says fun, we all know she means: “I’m still dangerous, just not on the payroll.”
And let’s talk fashion — because Serena isn’t just dressing to impress, she’s dressing to intimidate. Custom gowns. Statement blazers. Shoes that scream “I’ve crushed legends and carried toddlers in these.” When she appears at events, it’s like the tennis world stands at attention — like the court itself is hoping she’ll walk back on.
At home, she’s a different kind of GOAT — parenting with purpose, dancing in the kitchen, and filming TikToks that have better production value than most music videos. Husband Alexis Ohanian? Still grinning like he won life’s lottery. Baby girl #2? Still fresh, and already blessed with the best genes in sporting history.
Serena’s “retirement” isn’t about stopping. It’s about spreading her dominance. From tennis courts to boardrooms, from Vogue shoots to bedtime stories, she’s still that girl. The serve may be silent, but the power? Louder than ever.
So no, she’s not holding a trophy right now.
She’s holding the whole damn world.
