Unfortunately, Serena Williams went down to Ajla Tomljanovic with a score of 7-5, 6-7, and 6-1 in the third round of the US Open 2022 and eventually bowed out of the competition.
Dancing to the “last” tune of Serena Williams
During the intense match that was going on between Serena and Ajla, a woman and her guy stood together on their feet. The girl, out of nowhere, started sipping her drink and went crazy. To go with this, the crowd within no time, erupted along with her and was seen having a lot of fun.

All of this seemed familiar because the same woman and her guy were at the previous US Open in November 2021 as well, wherein the woman did something similar by raising both her hands after she had finished drinking. And as usual, the crowd gave a loud cheer to make it all fun and interesting.

Is this really going to end?
Once the match ended, Serena was literally seen in her “happy” tears. Her sister Venus, her husband, and the rest of the family were seen as satisfied and quite emotional at the same time. In all honesty, that gave us an indication that we might be seeing Serena Williams for one last time.

But what turned out after that might tell us a different story. During her post-match press conference, she was asked if she was reconsidering her retirement. “I don’t know. I’m not thinking about that. I always did love Australia, though. But yeah, you know what, I’ve come a long way since last year at Wimbledon. Just not sure if that was my last moment or not. Making it a different moment I think is much better. It takes a lot of work to get here. Clearly I’m still capable. It takes a lot more than that.”, she said.
Serena Williams has had a stellar career and seeing her play her last Grand Slam was in fact emotional not just for her, but for her fans too.
