New Serena Williams memoir in the works, could fetch $10 million offer: Reports

Serena Williams is reportedly shopping a new memoir via Suzanne Gluck, a literary power agent with William Morris Endeavor Entertainment (referred to as Endeavor Group Holdings, Inc. recently). Over the course of a 20-year career, Gluck has represented some of the industry's biggest bestselling and award-winning writers.

As reported by Page Six, there is an "eight-figure" deal on the table, and the book deal could fetch the 23-time Grand Slam champion $10 million minimum. Meanwhile, another source close to the publication has claimed that the deal is already finalized and that Williams' team was initially looking for a deal involving multiple books.

However, when contacted for more information, neither WME nor Williams' camp commented on the situation. Serena Williams previously published a memoir in 2009 titled My Life: Queen on the court with the help of a ghostwriter.

After a glittering career that spanned over two decades, the former World No. 1 hung up her racquet last year at the US Open, falling in the third round to Ajla Tomljanovic after downing Danka Kovinic and then World No. 2 Anett Kontaveit in the previous rounds.

Recalling the moment afterwards, Williams declared that she was not at all happy with the loss, wondering if she could have done better on the day and gotten over the Australian to reach the second week in her final Slam appearance. She said:

“I was actually not very happy at all. Just because of the result. I was there to keep going and to keep winning. And yeah, it was more or less like, ‘I can’t believe I let that match go’ more than anything, you know." “Obviously, it was a great moment and a great memory and I’ve never felt – I don’t feel like I’ve left anything, but I just felt like, ‘What could I have done better that day?’”
