Serena Williams Faces Tough Challenge

As everyone knows, Serena Williams is going for one of the biggest records in tennis – the record for the most Grand Slams. She just needs one more to equal it and that’s her goal at Roland Garros this year. However, it is not going to be easy for her.

In the fourth round, she could face Victoria Azarenka who bested her at the US Open. In addition to that, she could face Elina Svitolina in the quarter-finals and Simona Halep in the semi-finals. This is a tough draw but she is a 23-time Grand Slam champion for a reason and we all can expect her to overcome these challenges.
