Serena Williams is a towering personality in herself and if you add an extra scoop of boldness to her, it results in a lethal combination that's hard to match and difficult to imitate. On days when Williams isn't winning trophies or intimidating her opponents with her brilliant tennis skills, she's shooting for such stunning photoshoots that are worth all your time. She's a hands-on mother and her parenting skills cannot be even. It was her newborn who ignited a desire within her to take up the racket and shatter some old records while making new ones. Serena Williams Advances to Wimbledon Semi-final.

Anyways coming back to her bold and ferocious cover, Serena is the cover girl for Harper's Bazaar's August issue that's all about unveiling the naked truth and presenting a real version of hers. She flaunts her butt in this new magazine cover that instantly piques your interest and makes you exclaim WOAH! Yes, you saw it coming from someone as determined as Serena and we are glad for she decided to go against 'photoshop'. None of her pictures have been curated to please your eyes and they are as real as her grand slam wins. Andy Murray, Serena Williams to Pair Up for Mixed Doubles at Wimbledon 2019.

“I’ve been called every name in the book. I’ve been shamed because of my body shape. I’ve been paid unequally because of my sex. I’ve been penalized a game in the final of a Major because I expressed my opinion or grunted too loudly...And these are only the things that are seen by the public. In short, it’s never been easy. But then I think of the next girl who is going to come along who looks like me, and I hope, ‘Maybe, just maybe, my voice will help her.’” @SerenaWilliams goes unretouched on our August 2019 issue and gets candid in a personal essay on BAZAAR.com.
