Origin
and identity

Serena Williams combined her serve with ambition across decades of major finals.

Her first US Open singles championship arrived in 1999. What followed was not one uninterrupted reign, but repeated surges: four consecutive majors across 2002–03, another sweep across 2014–15, and championship tennis on every surface.

With Venus, she also won fourteen major doubles titles and three Olympic doubles golds. Serena's individual London gold completed a singles collection spanning the four majors and Olympics.
