In a star-studded show of glamour and excitement, tennis legend Serena Williams made her grand return to the US Open, dazzling fans both on and off the court. The 23-time Grand Slam champion, who has lifted the trophy at Flushing Meadows an impressive six times, decided to kick back and relax this time around.
Amidst the buzz and excitement of the tournament, Williams took a moment to immerse herself in the glitz and glamour of the US Open experience. Sampling the famed Grey Goose cocktail on Tik Tok, she couldn’t help but share her delight. “Honey, that’s not deuce,” she gushed on social media. “That’s called Honey, ad-in, or Honey ace. Let’s rename it!”
After taking the tennis world by storm for years, Williams made a stylish appearance on site, paying tribute to the iconic denim skirt she famously wore at the Open in 2004. As she settled into the atmosphere at Arthur Ashe Stadium, she took in the action, cheering on fellow players Grigor Dimitrov and Coco Gauff with enthusiasm.
But the highlight of Williams’ weekend was undoubtedly her first taste of the tournament’s signature Honey Deuce cocktail. Introduced at the US Open in 2007, the refreshing drink has become a must-try for fans and players alike. Surprisingly, Williams had never tried it before. “Everyone’s like, ‘Have you ever had one?’ No, because I’ve always been playing,” she admitted with a laugh.
As the US Open entered its second week, Williams continued to bask in the excitement and energy of the event. While her tennis career may have evolved over the years, her passion for the sport and the unique experiences it offers remain as strong as ever. With her flair for fashion and her unyielding spirit, Serena Williams is truly a force to be reckoned with both on and off the court.
