Serena Williams says winning the Australian Open while pregnant was her most important career moment: 'I don't know how I did that'
BERLIN — It was an impressive enough sporting feat when Serena Williams won a record 23rd Grand Slam singles title at the 2017 Australian Open, beating her sister Venus in the final. Soon after came a revelation: she had been pregnant at the time. "I don't know how I did that, honestly," Williams said at an event Wednesday, selecting the moment as the most important of her tennis career. It's been quite the career — after winning her first Grand Slam at the U.S. Open in 1999, Williams went on to become the only player to have achieved the "Golden Slam" — winning the Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon and US Open and getting an Olympic gold medal — in both singles and doubles tennis. "I don't know what I was doing then, I was nine weeks pregnant ... I do remember not being able to run for a long time," Williams said at the SuperReturn private equity conference in Berlin. "I didn't tell anyone. I mean, Venus knew, and I still feel really bad about that, because a deep part of me feels like because we played each other in the final, I'm like, she must have known, and she must have felt some sort of deep heaviness to go even further and go all out. But she was only one of two people that knew." Early pregnancy symptoms can be intense as the body undergoes a huge transformation, with a surge in hormones often leading to fatigue, breathlessness and nausea. "I remember saying, I have to do a lot of aces, I have to do a lot of winners," Williams continued, referring to a point scored directly from a serve. "I can only play, like, four balls and I'm done." "I remember one time playing a long point against one player, and I couldn't breathe. And I'm like, How does she not see that I'm not able to breathe right now, and so I just intentionally lost the next point just to kind of try and get my energy back. But then I was like: Why am I playing this far pregnant? This is nuts." Williams, who has two daughters with investor and Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, stepped back from professional tennis in 2022 to focus on her family. Sports stars such as cyclist Laura Kenny have spoken in recent years about the challenges of balancing an intense and physically demanding career with a desire to get pregnant, while tennis player Naomi Osaka has criticized public commentary that one must be sacrificed for the other. Williams now runs venture capital fund Serena Ventures, which has 40 portfolio companies. She told the packed audience of private equity professionals that the qualities that made her obsessed with winning in sports translated to a single-minded focus as an investor. "I do remember at one point, walking on the court at Wimbledon, and my partner at the time called me about a deal that we were trying to close," she recalled. "I was on Court One that day, and it's a really long walk. And I remember talking to her on the phone, and in the conversation, she's like ... How's your day going? I'm like: Well, I'm walking on the court right now. And she's just like: Are you kidding me? You have to get off the phone. I'm like, okay, it's fine. It's a long walk. I've done it before. So that's how intense, how intentional I am," Williams said. She noted that she looks for founders who are obsessive about being the best at what they do and changing the lives of people they want to impact. Her earliest investment was in the American football team Miami Dolphins in 2009, when she was the world's top-ranked female player. "We got so many bad articles about why we shouldn't be doing this. We need to just focus on tennis, and we need to not think about this," she said of the reaction from the media and sporting world at the time. "Now as an athlete, we're at the point where if you're only doing basketball or if you're only doing football, if you're only doing tennis, it's like, well, what else are you doing? So we gave people that platform to be like, it's okay. You can also be an entrepreneur, and you can do sport. You don't have to just stay in one lane, you know, and just do one thing."

Phil Mickelson Makes Big Career Announcement on Wednesday
Phil Mickelson Makes Big Career Announcement on Wednesday originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The 125th U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club is set for June 12-15 at Oakmont Country Club, a revered venue just northeast of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Advertisement This year's field will include 156 players, 85 of whom earned exemptions through past performances, world rankings and the newly created LIV Golf exemption, while the remainder will come through local and final qualifying events held across North America and beyond. As the golf world prepares for another iconic event on the PGA Tour, all eyes have turned to one of its most storied figures: Phil Mickelson. On Wednesday, Gene Wang of Post Sports posted on X a quote from Mickelson during the LIV Golf pre-tournament presser that there is a "High likelihood" next week's U.S. Open at Oakmont will be his last, say he's unsure if he will try to qualify down the road. Over a professional career that began in 1992, Mickelson has amassed 57 total wins worldwide, including 45 PGA Tour victories (tied for eighth all-time) and six major championships. Advertisement His major resume includes three Masters titles (2004, 2006, 2010), two PGA Championship wins (2005, 2021) and a lone Open Championship victory (2013). Notably, his 2021 PGA Championship win at Kiawah Island made him the oldest major champion in history at 50 years, 11 months, and 7 days. Golfer Phil Mickelson.© Kyle Terada-Imagn Images His U.S. Open record, however, remains defined by heartbreak: runner-up finishes in 1999, 2002, 2004, 2006, 2009 and 2013, the most runner-up finishes (six) in U.S. Open history. Mickelson, nicknamed "Lefty," turns 55 on June 16.

Rory McIlroy explains decision to duck media at PGA, saying he didn't want to discuss driver issue
CALEDON, Ontario (AP) — Rory McIlroy explained his decision not to speak to the media during last month's PGA Championship, saying Wednesday he was annoyed that news had leaked about his driver failing to pass inspection before the tournament. McIlroy said the results of equipment tests are supposed to be confidential and noted that Scottie Scheffler's driver had also failed before the championship, but that was not reported until afterward. Scheffler revealed after he won the PGA for his third major title that he had been forced to use a backup driver. 'I didn't want to get up there and say something that I regretted,' McIlroy said in a news conference at the Canadian Open, which begins Thursday. 'I'm trying to protect Scottie. I don't want to mention his name. I'm trying to protect TaylorMade. I'm trying to protect the USGA, PGA of America, myself.' It was a strange week for McIlroy, who arrived at the PGA as the most celebrated player in golf after he completed the career Grand Slam with his triumph at the Masters. Instead of taking a victory lap at Quail Hollow — a course where he has won four times — McIlroy was in a bad mood all week, and his refusal to discuss the driver test was much debated. McIlroy gave a day-by-day breakdown of his decisions not to talk to reporters, saying he wanted to practice after his poor first round. He finished his second round late and wanted to put his daughter, Poppy, to bed. He didn't want to talk about his driver, he was tired after his weather-delayed third round, and after his week concluded with a tie for 47th place, he just wanted to go home. He reiterated that PGA Tour players are not required to speak to the media. 'I talk to the media a lot,' McIlroy said. 'I think there should be an understanding that this is a two-way street, and as much as we need to speak to you guys — we understand the benefit that comes from you being here and giving us the platform and everything else, I understand that — but again, I've been beating this drum for a long time. 'If they want to make it mandatory, that's fine, but in our rules it says that it's not, and until the day that that's maybe written into the regulations, you're going to have guys skip from time to time, and that's well within our rights.' McIlroy also declined to talk to reporters after he blew a late lead and lost to Bryson DeChambeau in last year's U.S. Open at Pinehurst No. 2. He's a two-time winner of the Canadian Open, and he skipped a PGA Tour signature event last week at the Memorial to play in Canada as his tuneup for next week's U.S. Open at Oakmont. Whether he'll be interested in discussing his performance at the storied western Pennsylvania venue remains to be seen. 'If we all wanted to, we could all bypass you guys and we could just go on this,' McIlroy said, holding up his phone. 'We could go on social media and we could talk about our round and do it our own way. 'We understand that that's not ideal for you guys and there's a bigger dynamic at play here.'
