Tennis superstar Serena Williams already has 21 Grand Slams to her name, but now she can add one more accolade to her already impressive resume.
This year, Williams made ;the ;2015 “Daring” list in Harper’s Bazaar, which ;celebrates “incredible risk-taking, trailblazing women” like herself. ;Williams, who traded her tennis gear for ;a white Ralph Lauren jumpsuit, Louboutins and tennis racket/guitar, spoke about ;what “daring” means to her. ; ;
“Daring to me is taking a chance but not doing it blindly. A very calculated change,” said Williams. “Think of amazing women like Sheryl Sandberg and Oprah Winfrey — ;they’re daring, but they’re not jumping off a building without a parachute, you know?”
Williams, who recently broke her 33-match Grand Slam winning streak ;after a historic run, is not only “daring,” she also the best at what she does: tennis. When asked if Williams was the best tennis player ever, Billie Jean King, one of the greatest players in the game, told The Huffington Post simply, “Yes. I think we all do.” Williams would agree. ;
“Some people are born to do certain things, and I think I was born to do tennis,” said Williams in Harper’s Bazaar. “I definitely didn’t miss my calling!” And that just might ;be the greatest understatement of all time. ;
