After beating Danka Kovinic in the first round of the US Open, many fans started to grow hopes that Williams could possibly go all the way but she faced a very tough battle against world number 2, Anett Kontaveit. Many figured that this challenge would be too much for the 40-year-old to handle and that she would be defeated.

Williams surprised many worldwide as she emerged victorious from the tie in three sets in a hard-fought victory, fans took to Twitter to call Serena’s victory an ‘upset’ when American sports columnist, Skip Bayless called these baseless facts, he wrote on Twitter, “Serena Williams did not “upset” the U.S. Open’s No.-2 seed. She was just the better player, even at almost 41. She served better, volleyed stunningly better. Serena pretty much blasted her off the court. Yes, she had overwhelming “home” court advantage. But she flat-out DOMINATED.”

Bayless insisted that even being so close to retirement, Williams was not to be taken as an underdog. The GOAT of female tennis still has life left in her and she proved in a fantastic victory over Anett Kontaveit. Progressing to the third round of the US Open, Williams faces yet another tough challenge as she will be going up against Ajla Tomljanovic in the next round of the tournament at the Flushing Meadows.
