In other photos, she poses in a stunning Burberry fringe dress and another shows her rocking a Fleur du Mal bodysuit and the Azzedine Alaia belt. Speaking to Melissa Harris-Perry for Glamour, Serena Williams dishes on her career, her desire to start a family and raise kids, the wage gap for women in sports and those who blamed Drake for her loss at the 2015 U.S. Open.


On Starting a Family and Having Kids:

On blaming Drake for making her loose at the 2015 U.S Open:
No. I don’t think that was fair. I’m the one who’s playing, who’s making mistakes or making winners. I’m not one to blame anyone else for anything. And I don’t think anyone else should either. I played a really good opponent that day. And I wasn’t at my best.
On leaving a Legacy:
I never thought about leaving a tennis legacy. I always thought about leaving a legacy of fulfillment, living out your dreams, and giving back. I’m proud to have opened [two] schools in Africa and one in Jamaica [through the Serena Williams Fund and its partners]. I was given a lot. I was given two parents. That’s already starting above a lot of kids. And then I was given the opportunity to play tennis and parents who supported that. I feel I can give back.
