“I don't want to sit here and say, 'Oh, I'm happy'. Because I'm not.” - Williams ahead of Roland Garros

Serena Williams at age 39 is far from happy about her career and she is determined to win her 4th Roland Garros in the next fortnight.

The last time Serena Williams was victorious at the Roland Garros was in 2015 when she became the oldest player to ever lift the trophy. Now several years alter she is far from done and is hoping to win her 4th Roland Garros title. Earlier this month she reached the semifinal of the US Open and when asked whether that result was enough she said:

“I think a semi-final is always great. Is it great for me? Absolutely not. That's just how I feel. That's how I always feel. I'm in a position in my career where I cannot be satisfied."

She is set to face Kristie Ahn in the 1st round of the grand slam and when asked if it feels surreal to play at ate 39 she said:

“I honestly never thought I would be playing at my age. I don't know when it's going to stop for me. I just have fun. When I feel it's over, it's over.”

Her preparations included rehabbing the injury she suffered in New York and training along with coach Patrik in the south of France. On it she said:

“I didn't play any tune-ups, which is really rare. But this whole year has been really rare. After New York, I flew to France and I've just been training at Patrick's academy, mostly rehabbing, trying to be ready. So that was basically what it was, rehab and training.”
