O adeus de Serena Williams ao ténis emocionou o mundo do desporto e desde o último ponto da sua carreira que as homenagens se têm multiplicado.

Michael Phelps, Simone Biles, Tiger Woods, Lebron James ou Michelle Obama foram apenas algumas das figuras a deixar a sua homenagem.

It’s truly been fun to watch Serena not only change the sport of tennis, but more importantly, how she’s helped empower the next generation. Her tennis accomplishments speak for themselves, but one of the things I admire about her is she simply doesn’t quit. On or off the court
