Serena Williams has been called by many the Greatest of All Time but she admits herself that she is not 100 percent there yet and isn't really focusing on the numbers involved.
Williams has said that she never started to play tennis to be the best but even if people are saying it, the American said that she feels the likes of Chris Evert, Martina Navratilova and Steffi Graf are ahead of her.
'I never really want to focus on the numbers. I started playing tennis not to be the greatest but just because I had a racquet and a dream.
Now people are saying that I could be, but for me, I'm just not there yet. I feel like people like Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova and Steffi Graf, they just, right now, are just, to me, the ultimate icons in history and the historics of women's tennis. I just am still that girl with the racquet and a dream, and I'm just playing for that.'
