Maria Sharapova and Serena Williams shared a fierce rivalry during their playing days but now they're best friends according to Williams.
It was a heated rivalry between Serena and Maria over the years with Williams being the more successful player both overall and in the H2H. At times it became so heated that many fans thought they hated each other and while not far from the truth, there was a certain dose of respect there from the start.
In a recent interview, Williams revealed something that surprised many of their fans claiming that they are best friends now. It's not that surprising as their relationship softened up over the years but 'best friends' isn't something that Serena would use lightly.
She also apologised to Caroline Wozniacki who held that title before as Williams admitted that Maria and her bonded over parenthood:
“She is my best friend now. Sorry, Caroline. Also the first person I can call to discuss my day-to-day things with. Motherhood has brought us really close to each other”
They also share a keen interest in business investing in several platforms so perhaps they share talks on that topic as well.

- No surprise really. When things go wrong, you start to see the real Djokovic. He has.a history of throwing tantrums, swearing, destroying rackets, comimg up with excuses and, and, and...... I honestly find it difficult to like or respect this guy.GustafC15-04-2024
- Not only did he Lose... he has shown yet again he is a Loser. If his behavior is a surprise to anyone, then you have a poor ability to assess a person's true being. Or do not wish to see it. A hint may have been when anti-Vax Boy contracted Covid, yet knowingly exposed kids & adults while taking selfies and promo photos with small crowds during at least two publicity functions. That's not the actions of someone who is at all concerned about others! No matter who it may be, famous or not, sooner or later their true identity shines through the façade.
