Serena Williams changes her mind: I never said retirement
American tennis player Serena Williams announced his retirement after the US Open loss, but a few weeks later appears to be reconsidering the decision.
"I never used the word retirement," Serena Williams said on Jimmy Fallon's show.
She drew a comparison with another sports legend, legendary NFL quarterback Tom Brady, who first announced his retirement, then changed his mind and decided to play one more season.
- I am very happy, there are many things that I could not do, and I would like to do in the past years. But I'm not going to relax, I just want to start enjoying what I couldn't in the past. However, I did talk to Tom Brady about his retirement. I don't see myself away from tennis and I would like to do something and stay connected with this sport. Tennis was a light in my life - added Serena Williams.
