For those of you keeping score at home, it’s been five months since Serena Williams almost died giving birth to her daughter, Olympia. But now Williams is ready to see her tennis career reborn, as Sports Illustrated notes.

There’s no wrong way to be a woman. But there’s sure one right way to be Serena Williams.
