It seems like the youngest of the Williams sisters can’t really count on him anymore. If she wanted to “attack” the Australian’s 24 slam wins, she now had to win in her forties. Because it will be 40 in September. It seems that the famous American did not see any chance of the success of this project, as there was a chance for two brilliant victories. Otherwise, she wouldn’t quit taking off at Flushing Meadows this year. Last season, I fought here in the semi-finals. This was theoretically her last chance to implement the registration plan.
She indicated an injury to her right leg was the reason for her resignation this season. Thigh muscle problems led to her scratching at the end of June in the first round of Wimbledon half an hour after the meeting with Alexandra Sosnowiec. She has not played in any tournament since then. However, there were times when she entered the tournament not ready at all and won it. Now, in the age of physically well-equipped younger competitors, it seems impossible. And the Florida champion just realized that. She doesn’t want to risk her health when she’s overweight and it could end tragically for her.
Immediately after that, such a decision was made by her older sister, 41-year-old Venus, who this week tried to validate her health in Chicago, but quickly and smoothly lost to Su-Wei Hsieh there. And she decided that in the most demanding slams in New York, there was nothing else to rival the younger opponents. I left her, and also explained her leg problems. I participated in this tournament for the first time… 24 years ago. In 1997, she reached the final, in which she lost to Martin Hingis. She won her two titles in New York in 2000-2001.
So the Williams sisters were joined by Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Dominic Thiem, who had previously announced their absence from the most important tennis event in North America. In the case of the last two names, we’re sure we’ll see them in a major tournament. tournaments. In the case of Federer and his siblings of American veterans, it’s not a certainty. We will likely learn a lot more after the preparations for the upcoming games. If Serena, Venus and Roger are not among the participants, then perhaps this will mean the end of their beautiful and long career. However, this moment must come sometime…
