Serena Williams Tells Bradley Cooper She Can ‘Go Back To Tennis’

Tennis’ GOAT may not be gone forever.

Serena Williams may have recently retired from the sport, but the athlete admitted that she wouldn’t mind returning at some point in the future.

“I feel like if I want to come back, I can definitely still come back,” she said Bradley Cooper during the A+E Networks and History Channel History Talks event in Washington on Sept. 24, according to Variety.

For now, Serena, 40, is happy with her decision to hang up her racket, explaining that she “just needed to stop”.

“I’ve always said I want to stop when I’m playing really good tennis, winning and beating good players,” she said. “For me, it’s really something I want to do spiritually and spend time with my daughter and family.”

Serena greeted her daughter Olympia in 2017 with her husband Oleksiy Ohanyan.

“As a very hands-on mom, I can’t tell you how hard it was. I lost so many matches after I had Olympia because it was so hard to be on the court,” she continued. “I feel like I’ve given so much of my life to tennis, my whole life, that it’s time to do something else for me and also work on other things.”
