Serena Williams was born in Saginaw, Michigan, on September 26, 1981, but she and her sister were raised in the economically depressed and often violence-riddled Los Angeles suburb of Compton. Her father Richard ran a private security firm, and her mother Oracene (who often uses the name Brandy) was a nurse.
Serena and Venus Williams improved their Grand Slam doubles finals record to 14–0. Only Martina Navratilova/Pam Shriver own more Grand Slam doubles titles as a team with 20 championships. In 2017, by virtue of her 7th Australian Open singles title, she won her 23rd Grand Slam singles title and surpassed Steffi Graf's Open Era record of 22.
1995–1996 [ edit] Williams's first professional event was in October 1995, at the age of 14, at the Bell Challenge in Quebec City. She lost in the first round of qualifying to world no. 149 Annie Miller in less than an hour of play and earned US$240 in prize money. Williams did not play a tournament in 1996.
