"There's no need to rush. There's still a little left in me, so we'll see. I'm a pretty good player. I like challenges", Serena said as reported by Antara from AFP, Thursday, September 1, 2022.

"I'm just Serena, you know. Honestly, after I lost in the second set, I thought 'oh my goodness, I have to give my best because this might be (the last one)'", he continued.

Serena added. "I just see it as a bonus. I have nothing to prove. I absolutely will not lose. I have 'X' on my back since 1999."

The American arrived on the pitch introduced as "the greatest of all time" by the stadium broadcaster. While Kontaviit waited patiently in her chair.

Several stars were watching the game, including golf superstar Tiger Woods as well as Emmy Awards winner actress Zendaya.
