Serena Williams [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/serena-williams/], the 23-time grand slam champion is arguably one of the greatest players in the history of the sport. Williams is eyeing to equal Margaret Court’s record of 24 grand slam titles at the US Open 2020 [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/us-open-2020/] starting next week. Recently, Newyork based Chase Bank organized a podcast ” Chase Chats” [https://twitter.com/Chase/status/1296522251265875969], where the host Jay Williams invited Serena Williams to talk about money habits, knowing your worth and playing without fans at the US Open for the first time. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/202008141653608113604.jpg] “I have no idea. I think it’s going to be really weird. I think it would actually be good for some players that don’t like big fans, I definitely think I drive a little energy from the fans but you know, not too much because there’s been a long time during my career where I had to drive it from myself. So I am right in the middle, I really don’t know how’s it going to be.” said Serena when asked about how the experience is going to be without playing in front of the fans. The presenter Jay Williams talked about Serena having participated nineteen times at the US Open [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/tennis/us-open/] and winning a record six championships. The former World No.1 was quick to remark “That’s it, out of nineteen. See that’s how I look at it. I have played nineteen times and won six. The math is off”. SERENA EYEING 74TH CAREER TITLE AT CINCINNATI OPEN After many top players withdrawing from the Master’s tournament, Serena will relatively have an easier route to the final. The former World No.1 awaits the winner of Alison Van Uytvanck of Belgium and the winner of the qualifier. The American is likely to face Johanna Konta [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/johanna-konta/] in the quarterfinals and will potentially play against Naomi Osaka [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/naomi-osaka/] or Petra Kvitova [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/petra-kvitova/] if she manages to reach the final. self-worth [https://www.essentiallysports.com/i-am-definitely-worth-a-trillion-serena-williams-disregards-the-role-of-money-in-her-life-wta-tennis-news/]

<strong>History</strong>

The sport of tennis is said to originate from the 12th century in France. However, at that time, players were using their palms to hit the ball. From the 16th century onwards, rackets began to be put in use.

But it was only from the 19th century onwards that it became a serious game. A typical tennis match consists of games. Players score 15 points to 30 points to 40 points and finally a game. In the event of 40-40, also known as a deuce, a player has to gain an advantage and win the next point to win the game.

The first to reach 6 games with a minimum gap of 2 games wins a set. However, if one player wins 6 games and the other wins 5, the leading player has to win a 7th game before his opponent. In the event of six games all, on certain occasions, a tiebreak is played until a player either reaches 6 games or wins by 2 games if both reach 6 games.

Coming to sets, there are 2 types of matches, 3-set matches and 5-set matches. In the event of the former, if a player earns 2 set wins, he or she wins the match. In the latter's case, it is a case of a player winning at least 3 sets.

There are various tennis tournaments held throughout the year. But the ultimate tournaments are known as Grand Slams. There are four main Grand Slams held every year. In chronological order, they are the Australian Open, the French Open, Wimbledon and the US Open. Out of the four, Wimbledon is the oldest, first being held in 1877. The Australian Open is the youngest, first being held in 1905.

With regard to players, Margaret Court holds the record for the most Grand Slam wins for women. In the men's section, it is Roger Federer.
