Ever since Serena Williams gave birth to the beautiful baby girl and future legend Alexis Olympia Ohanian, Jr., we've all been eagerly awaiting her return to the tennis court. Of course, Williams was just as eager herself, given that tennis is so much a part of her life and is her passion.
On Tuesday, May 29, Williams returned in legendary fashion, competing in the French Open, Yahoo reports.
Williams hadn't played in a major tennis tournament since her January 2017 Australian Open win, which she copped while pregnant with little Alexis Olympia.
And she returned in style! Instead of donning a sleek skirt or dress set, Williams went for a black Nike bodysuit with a red stripe across her midriff, looking like The Incredibles did a crossover with Black Panther.
Williams' return was the stuff of legend, and fans made sure to express their glee on Twitter.

So, did she win her match?
Is water wet?! Williams defeated Kristyna Pliskova 7-6, 6-4 following a tiebreaker in the first set. This is Williams' first Grand Slam match win since becoming a mother, according to the Associated Press.
Just another victory to remind us that she is, forever and always, the GOAT.
