Serena Williams et le miroir de Sabalenka : "Je me vois reflétée en elle, car c'est une bête qui donne tout sur le court"

L'Américaine n'a pas hésité à louer la numéro un mondiale et a rappelé que "quand elle perd, elle se fâche, et on ne me laissait pas exprimer ma colère quand je jouais, mais j'adore qu'ils le lui permettent".

Serena Williams is taking advantage of these weeks without tennis to recover from her knee injury after her anticipated return at Wimbledon, where she fell in three sets against Maya Joint and couldn't play doubles with her sister, Venus. The 23-time Grand Slam champion is giving interviews before putting on her work gear again for the North American hard court tour, where she is expected to play in the US Open.

It is assumed that the American will receive a wild card, not only for the singles draw but also for the women's and mixed doubles. Now it remains to be seen if she decides to participate in the WTA 1000 in Canada, where the organization stated they are awaiting her response, and in the WTA 1000 in Cincinnati.

Invitations to singles draws where she could face seeded players at the US Open, and in the WTA 1000 tournaments if she advances past the first round. Under these circumstances, the tennis world dreams of a match between Serena Williams and the world number one, Aryna Sabalenka, the two most charismatic players on the WTA circuit.

It would be a historic and intense duel, but above all, one where the screams would not be lacking. It would also be a match between two players who respect each other greatly. Serena stated this at the Fanatics Fest in Manhattan: "Sabalenka is number 1 and is a beast who gives her all on the court. I see myself in her and I love that, I love that about her".

However, she also pointed out that the Belarusian is allowed to do something that she was always denied: "When she loses, she gets angry, and I wasn't allowed to express my anger when I played, but I love that they allow her to show her anger. I love that," affirmed the American in statements collected by Tennis 365.

.

She also took the opportunity to talk about her sister, companion, and rival for so many years: Venus Williams. More than once they had to face each other in a Grand Slam final, and in one of those finals, Serena couldn't even look her sister in the face after losing.

"I remember once I lost the Wimbledon final against her and I was furious. I couldn't even look at her. I couldn't speak. And it was very funny because later we had to play a doubles final and I was furious. I didn't say a word on the court. She is so disconnected that she didn't even notice. Years later, I found out she didn't even know I was mad at her,” she said with laughter, just weeks away from returning to the game, while praising the figure of Aryna Sabalenka.
