Serena says that retirement is out of question

There are so many retirements around that the press is becoming a bit paranoid. Who is the next to retire? Well don’t talk about Serena as she is still enjoying a lot her life as a professional player (and she is not that bad as well.. .;-)

So when asked if she is thinking about retiring she said “I’m not thinking about ending my career any time soon. I love playing tennis and opportunities to travel to wonderful countries make me very happy.

While I am healthy I don’t see my career ending. It’s important to be No.1 in the world but its also fundamental to play grand slams.

What is better than travelling the world and doing what you love? It couldn’t be better. I hope to have a lot of fun. I am very excited to be here. I want to play at my best for the people watching.

There is no pressure, it’s a different situation.”

You can’t disagree with that. To tell the truth it seems she is now in her prime. Yes… she is 31 years old, but does this matter anymore in tennis?
