21 Times Serena Williams Made Us Drool

It’s the GOAT’s birthday.

And by GOAT, we mean the winningest women’s tennis player ever, Serena Williams.

During her storied career, which began in 2003 and lasted nearly two decades, she dominated the court and took home several Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, and US Open titles. Her success was shared with her sister Venus, as the two won 14 doubles titles, a record in the sport that probably won’t be beaten anytime soon.

But, in 2022, she gave it all up in style, announcing she was retiring from tennis in a Vogue article. However, she refused to use the actual word, saying, “I have never liked the word retirement. It doesn’t feel like a modern word to me. I’ve been thinking of this as a transition…Maybe the best word to describe what I’m up to is evolution. I’m here to tell you that I’m evolving away from tennis, toward other things that are important to me.”

Since stowing away her racket, she’s continued her philanthropic and business efforts, pondered owning a WNBA team, and most recently did a solid job hosting the 2024 ESPYs.

Business and sports aside, Williams has been one of the most sought-after women athletes over the past decade, having been linked to Common and Drake before marrying Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian.

And we can’t blame them.

After posing in Sports Illustrated for the second time, she told the mag about embracing her curves.

“I want to come away with the fact that it’s O.K. to be comfortable in your body. I’ve never worn a thong before, and the second I stepped out there, I was comfortable. And what I would like for people to come away with is—first of all, I’m not a size 2—and it’s O.K. to look good, to feel good. And I’m strong—it’s O.K. to look strong and to be sexy and to be a woman and to be unbreakable and to be all those things,” she said.

So, in honor of her 43rd birthday, we’re taking a look at some of her hottest shots on Instagram below.
