Serena Williams is one of the most recognizable faces in tennis history. You may not recognize her in her latest photos, however, as she’s slimmed down and is looking super skinny.

She played 27 years of professional tennis from 1995 to 2022 and captured 23 Grand Slam titles. She was simply a physical specimen out there on the court.

Now 43, we saw Williams last year rocking a leopard-print bikini with her 7-year-old daughter Adira and C-walking at the Super Bowl for Kendrick Lamar’s performance of his hit song “Not Like Us”, to which she came out and said it wasn’t intended to be a diss at ex-boyfriend Drake.

Williams has also wowed with her fashion choices like her business heels and miniskirt combo, and her stunning pink top and shorts, and her fire brown-belted dress.

She recently reappeared looking super skinny in the gym where she said, “Working out and working on my angles.”

In Williams’ most recent post visiting Niagara Falls with Adria, you can see how unrecognizable she looks.

Serena captioned the post, “what can I say, still chasing waterfalls…

She’s certainly not chasing success now that her career is over as she has other business ventures like her new beauty line, and partial ownership of future 2026 WNBA team, the Toronto Tempo.

Serena will always be a face of tennis, but you might not recognize her current face after her weight loss.
