Over the years, tennis has seen evolution and some upcoming gems have made a name for themselves in the game. From an era in which Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova used to dominate the game to today, when Coco Gauff, Iga Swiatek, and others have topped the rankings, we have come a long way. The same thing was witnessed recently at the WTA Finals as well. Just days ahead of the start of the tournament, the hype surrounding the players’ photoshoot was unreal.
However, deep behind this, a nostalgic hit took fans back in time as they could not stop gushing about the former legends of the game. Not only this, some even suggested that the golden era cannot be recreated.

Thus, the image was one of the most decorated ones in the history of tennis as some of the best names in the world sat beside each other in a room. Not only did it remind fans about the beauty that they had but also the dominance that they displayed on the courts.
More details about the event where the picture was clicked back in 2014
The picture was clicked back in 2014 just days ahead of the WTA Finals. The event was held in Singapore and was attended by some of the best players in the world. It was conducted from the 17th to the 26th of October and was the 44th edition.
Interestingly, it was Serena Williams who made her way into the finals of the tournament and faced the tough task of Simona Halep. However, Williams did not shy away and went ahead to win the match and therefore laid her hands on the prestigious title. The final scoreline of the match remained 6-3, 6-0 in favor of the American legend.
Thus, the old generation of players made a great impact on the sport. Time and again, they proved that they were some of the best players that the tennis world had ever seen. This has built strong pressure on the upcoming gems to reach the heights that she did.
