You're kidding me. Serena almost always withdraws from any non-Slam event. It's become a joke!

Venus needed this WO because she needed 9 match points yesterday for her win

When people are serious I agree, but Maestro is just having fun

Retire already.

Aussie Darcy · May 14, 2019

Why bother turning up? I was surprised she actually went considering just a couple days earlier she was at the Met Gala. Looked fine in her first match anyway. Maybe just wanted some practice.

This is not true anymore. She has only won 1 of the last 9 Slams and 2 of the last 14. Osaka and Kerber have been winning at a better clip.

This may have been his response to some redditor asking - “bro do you even lift?”

Serena is the moral winner of Rome. She has a daughter.

Wow, hasn't she?

The idiicy continues because of all this hype she tries to wave around her.

BorgCash · May 14, 2019

Due to a continuing unability to play tennis sv has been forced to pull out of wta tour. At last.

I think FO 2018 . Her 2017 kits on clay were the most epic though

Some of the EleVen outfits I haven't liked because she has taken slightly too big a risk, but most of the stuff she does is consistently good. She has been killing it for a while now, particularly in terms of the EleVen prints outfits and colour choices.

terribleIVAN · May 14, 2019

Does that mean she's not going to soldier on anymore ?

I love when people appreciate her fashion

she's underrated for sure. Women's kits are generally extremely boring and she managed to actually look epic a lot of times.

She will NOT retire until she breaks Court all-time 24 majors. It's the ultimate female tennis record that she wants real bad.

well good luck with her winning anything more than a 250

Federer won a slam in 2018, and Court won a slam after having a baby. Serena has to believe that she has a shot at claiming the slam record by the time she retire.

Her level is nothing like Federer's, even Fed from the second half of 2018. She's atrocious now.

Have you seen her lately? She looks like Evander Holyfield.

I remember Ali vs. Holmes in 1980("The Last Hurrah").

Ali was a shadow of his former-self and should have retire, but he chose to fight because he still believe he can beat peak Holmes. The result was humiliating loss, because he was a punchbag.

The point is ATG with so much past success are sometime cloud their judgement even though they are way past their prime.

rme at some of the comments here about her body as usual. anyways, serena skip clay and get ready for grass.

Serena is always injured, looks out of shape (for a tennis player), seems winded during play and doesn't seem all that interested anymore.

It's time to retire.

She reached the 4R, F, F and QF of the last 4 slams she was in? Barring Osaka, and Kerber/Halep (as they won one each), Serena had better results than pretty much anyone in the Top 10.

Luka888 · May 15, 2019

I wish her well but Serena could be a big drama queen.

It would be cool if Venus somehow manages to win Rome. I love Venus so much. Great lady

I'm not even the biggest Serena fan, I am pretty much neutral with the WTA tour, but some of the comments here are a bit crazy.

Add on another 20 years of the same old nonsense throughout her entire career.
