Fans, photojournalists and US Open staff crowd practice court 1 to watch and photograph what would be some of Serena Williams’s last moments on court.









As fans eagerly waited in the wings of the practice court stadium to snap one photo of the 23-time grand slam champion, one staff member began grabbing the phones of those in the wings to take the photo for them. One by one, phones were passed towards the front of the stands for the staff member to capture the historic moment for them.
