Serena Williams has been on a rollercoaster ride over the past six months. After stepping on a chard of glass in Germany, where she won the Wimbledon title, and badly wounding herself, the 29-year-old’s health started to decline. She had two surgeries due to complications from the injury and then developed a life-threatening lung condition that almost killed her.
However, today is a different day and Williams competes today for in the U.S. Opens Finals. This is a big deal as she’s the only American playing on the court, on the day the country is commemorating the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
Reuters reports the favorite as saying, "But it's also, you know, a great day for us to be playing the finals. It's a time to remember what happened, but also to maybe get through it. And hopefully we can have a good match."
Williams, who has won 13 grand slams and three U.S. Opens says, "Six months ago I was in the hospital and now I'm in the final so I feel like regardless of a result, I have just been a champion for everyone out there who are fighting against all odds."
