"I love all these shoes, thank you!"

Serena Williams is forever the G.O.A.T! In the spirit of celebrating her greatness, Nike gifted the tennis champ with a box filled with "memorable moment" sneakers before her recent tennis match. Keep scrolling to get the deets!

According to TMZ, Nike recently sent Williams an extra special package ahead of her US Open game, which may be the athlete's last tennis tournament. The box filled with goodies included a pair of custom sneakers inspired by Virgil Abloh

The grey and neon green kicks featured her name in quotes, staying true to Abloh’s signature style aesthetic. "I love all these shoes, thank you," she happily shared in a brief video.

FYI: Williams was close friends with the famed designer. You could even say that Williams was a muse for Abloh, who passed away in 2021

The Brooklyn Museum once said of their relationship, “Beyond their interest in fashion, Williams and Abloh shared the experience of excelling to the highest ranks of predominantly white enterprises.”

We are overjoyed to see that everyone has been showering the tennis pro with well-deserved flowers. She is legendary!
