« C’est tellement vital de tout donner », a déclaré Williams à la foule en adoration. « J’ai été en bas et dehors tellement de fois, aux yeux du public.
« Je veux juste que les gens soient inspirés par mon histoire.
« Je viens de Compton, en Californie… et j’ai réussi. »
Il n’y avait certainement pas d’endroit plus approprié pour tirer le rideau sur l’une des carrières les plus phénoménales du tennis que dans une ville qui a été dans son coin depuis le tout début, alimentant des programs à six couronnes de l’US Open.
