Brady, 44, called time on his illustrious career earlier this week. The seven-time Super Bowl winner said he was no longer prepared to commit his entire life to the NFL and that he was looking forward to the next chapter.

Serena Williams was among the athletes who paid tribute to Brady following his retirement. The American took to Instagram to offer some pearls of wisdom.

Brady set several NFL records during his time with the New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, including career quarterback wins, quarterback regular season wins, quarterback playoff wins, and Super Bowl MVP awards.

Serena Williams has not played a match in 2022

Williams started 2021 strongly by reaching the semifinals of the Australian Open. She then spent three months on the sidelines, before returning to action at the Italian Open, where she was beaten by Nadia Podoroska in the second round.

After another second-round exit in Parma, Williams reached the fourth round of the French Open, where she lost to Elena Rybakina. She competed at Wimbledon, but retired in her opening match against Aliaksandra Sasnovich after sustaining a leg injury. She has not played a competitive match since.

The 40-year-old withdrew from the Australian Open this year because she felt she wasn’t at her best physically. As a result, her ranking dropped to 244. It is unclear when Williams will return to action.
