Serena Williams

You've made it.

I mean, to be in this room is a super win already.

I would say I have more appreciation.

I'm sure you hear it from your kids.

But if it weren't for you, we wouldn't be here.

We wouldn't be on these teams.

And

you know what, I just, as someone that had my mom supporting me, you know, it is, I feel so grateful to my mom every single day to give me this opportunity to believe in me, even when things were rough and things were down, to show up every day for me, you know, to be there when

I didn't wanna be there to tell me to go an extra day when I didn't wanna go.

So I think all your sons can agree that they're super grateful for what you guys have done for them because without you, they wouldn't be there.

So I think you guys deserve a huge pat on the back, a huge round of applause.

And so

So happy for the opportunity that you've given your children.

I'm most excited about, well, getting back to my girls.

Yes.

And I don't know.

I feel like I have a lot of opportunities and just deciding which ones I want to go with and see which direction I'm going to go.

I'm healthy, so I'm just happy to be healthy.

Yes, believe me, the pleasure was mine.

I had so much fun.
