Serena Williams is most probably playing the last tournament of her incredible career at this US Open. The American legend was opposed to Danka Kovinic in the first round. Serena is definitely quite far from her best and it is widely expected that any upcoming match could be her last. Therefore, it is not a surprise that the Arthur Ashe Stadium was absolutely packed with Serena’s adoring fans.
This is how Serena was welcomed when she enter the Arena.
