An Oriki Tribute to Serena Williams: The Tennis GOAT
Serena Jameka of House Williams
First of Her Name.
Titan of Tennis.
Compton’s Celestial Champion.
Wimbledon Wunderkind.
GOAT of the Grand Slam.
Archetype of Athleticism.
Sensational Slayer of Serves.
Record-breaking Racket Royalty.
Baroness of BAWDY.
Olympia’s Olympian Mom.
Powerhouse. Icon. Legend. Dope Black woman.
The GREATEST of ALL TIME (GOAT). 🐐
Excellence is being great, consistently, over time and Serena has SERVED (pun intended) consistently over DECADES, managing the limelight and the court with the same ferocity and poise.
73 singles titles. 23 doubles titles, including 39 Grand Slam titles. 4 Olympic gold medals. Over 3 decades. It’s the domination without a rival that really shows that this Black woman deserves her place in history. It’s why Nike has dedicated a building to her. 🙌🏾
She’s done all of this while facing relentless pressure and critique. She rises regardless. A QUEEN. As said in her own words, this is not a retirement. This is an EVOLUTION. I can’t wait to see what’s next. 🔥
