With every major she wins, Serena moves closer to being a choice for Greatest of All Time (or GOAT, as Wertheim's crew would so elegantly put it). We'll be working on a series on the other contenders, but it's hard to argue against the proposition that the competition is better now: a greater number of talented players who are stronger and fitter. That includes the psychological challenge of playing against her own sister, who happens to be among the top ten best players of all time as well. In facing this depth of field, Serena has a career 80% win percentage, and holds the 'Serena Slam' of all four majors in a row. The only thing holding her back is that she's played somewhat less than she could have, both because of injury and by choice, and that in its way makes her results even more impressive.
