Serena Williams is gearing up for her own Last Dance.
Since her victory at the US Open for the first time in 1999 - 23 years ago - Williams has become an inspiration and role model for millions of women and girls across the world. Now she’s back at Flushing Meadows one final time.
The fact she’s here at all this year is remarkable; given her recent form - following an unexpected Wimbledon return - she probably has next to no chance of making it very far in the draw. Serena, however, deserves to go out on her own terms.
