After the rapid elimination of the Cincinnati Masters tournament this week, US tennis player Serena Williams has started preparations for the grand slam of the US Open, a home tournament where he does not win for two years. A year ago, in this period, she was preparing to become a mother and will now play in front of her audience in hopes of achieving another good result after coming to the Wimbledon final.

“I was entertained in London, but now I will play in front of my audience and I know that he expects a lot from me, so I do not want to disappoint, knowing that support will be great,” said the 36-year-old tennis player. Ex-number one in the world is clear that something has to change in her game so that it fits better with the new surface (cemented areas).

“I need to serve better, in order to be more aggressive and this should be constant, as rivals will be struggling to win the first ball. This will avoid long ball swaps and rapid physical fatigue. I need to improve some things in my game mode. I like to play in the US Open’s central field late in the evening, where I won and lost, “said Serena Williams./Flashsport24
