Last week, Serena Williams sat down with Vogue for its 73 Questions feature.

This week, her September cover of Self Magazine has surfaced... and she's absolutely slaying the game in all her glory.

Need proof?

For starters, look at Serena's cover shot.

Wow. Only Serena could serve up this mix of strong and sexy. And there's more where that came from.

Serena can't be messed with on or off the tennis court.

And from the looks of these photos, Serena seems more than poised and ready to take the U.S. Open title next month and surpass Steffi Graf's 22 Grand Slam titles, which she's currently tied.

If that pans out, Serena would need one more Grand Slam championship to tie Margaret Court's 24 for the most major titles in women's singles tennis history.

Witnessing her greatness is something special.
