Serena and Maria had a long-standing rivalry in the tennis world, which began two decades ago when Maria beat Serena to win Wimbledon in 2004 at age 17.

However, Serena was victorious in the next 19 matches between the athletes, with her last match taking place at the 2019 US Open.

However, the two tennis icons have long since buried the hatchet, as they previously posed together at the 2021 Met Gala and were seen catching up at the Valentino show on Sunday.

María retired from tennis in 2020 after five Grand Slams and a total of 21 weeks in the ATP number one spot.

In September 2022, Serena stepped away from tennis, but referred to her hiatus as an “evolution” rather than a retirement.

He won 23 Grand Slams in singles, 14 Grand Slams in doubles and two majors in mixed doubles, as well as three Olympic gold medals in doubles and one in singles throughout his 27-year career.

Maria, 36, also opted for a stylish all-black ensemble, featuring a black shirt and matching pants.
