The 2022 US Open is expected to be one of the most important in the tournament’s recent history. Why? Because it will be the end of Serena Williams’ professional tennis career.
After 26 years of professional tennis, Williams is set to retire after the US Open. The 40-year-old has established herself as one of the greatest tennis players in history, with 23 major titles to Margaret Court’s 24.
Williams has had a lot of success at the US Open. She has a total of six titles. Her fans are hoping she can make one more magical run and win another championship.
Men’s world No. 1 Daniil Medvedev will compete in his first major since the French Open. He was unable to compete at Wimbledon due to the All England Club’s decision to bar Russian and Belarussian players due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
Medvedev will not have to face Novak Djokovic, who will not travel to America for the tournament due to COVID-19 rules. He could face Rafael Nadal, who has won the US Open four times in his impressive career.
