Serena Williams coach says she must ‘face reality’ following failed attempts to win grand slam

Serena Williams’ coach, Patrick Mouratoglou has said that she needs to “face reality” following her failed attempts to win grand slams.

Williams, 38, is chasing another grand slam title in order to equal Margaret Court’s record of 24 grand slam titles. She has not won one since she welcomed her daughter, Olympia in 2017.

Since 2017, the American tennis great has lost out in four grand slam finals. In January though, she managed to secure a win at the Auckland Classic.

But that was right before the Australian Open where she was knocked out in the third round by China’s Wang Qiang.

“We have to accept the fact that it is not working,” Mouratoglou told BBC Sport.

“Maybe come back with a different angle, a different strategy and different goals so she can make it.

“She does feel positive, she feels negative too because it is a failure when she doesn’t win a grand slam.

“We have to face reality, but she is positive that she can make it otherwise she probably wouldn’t be on a tennis court anymore.

“She believes she can make it and I believe it too. She’s not that far, but we have to change a few things.”

Mouratoglou has coached Williams since 2012 and she has won 10 grand slams since then.

“It’s difficult to know how many chances she will have,” Mouratoglou added. “I don’t know how long she is going to be able to play.

“But being able to reach four grand slam finals says a lot about her level, and she’s not that far.

“She had everything to retire, 23 grand slam titles. But she decided to make all the efforts, the physical efforts, the mental efforts, to come back to the game, with the goal to score more grand slams and beat the all-time record.”
