Tennis legend Serena Williams once played against five men at the same time.
Williams, 43, is one of the greatest tennis stars of all time and arguably the best female player in history.
During what was truly a stunning career, Williams won 23 Grand Slam titles, a tally that is only bettered by Australian Margaret Court, who won 24.
Along with her sister Venus, the Williams sisters also dominated the doubles as the pair won gold at the 2000, 2008 and 2012 Olympic Games.

Despite being one of the GOATs of tennis, a survey from 2019 found that one in eight men stated that they could win a point in a game of tennis against Williams.
A video then went viral on social media, which shows Williams playing against five men.
At first, Williams served towards one man, who failed to return the American's serve.
The man was heard saying: "She put some spin on it and it was further out here than I was ready for."
Williams then delivered an ace against two men before landing another against three.
A fourth man was not enough as Williams' serve was again unreturned.
With five men standing on the other end of the court, Williams' serve was finally put back in play.
However, the return was high, which allowed the 23-time Grand Slam winner to win the point with an overhead smash.
Back in 2017, John McEnroe claimed that Williams would be ranked 700th if she played on the male tour.
He said: "If she played the men's circuit she'd be, like, 700 in the world.
"That doesn't mean I don't think Serena is an incredible player, and I suppose anything's possible; maybe at some point a women's tennis player can be better than anybody."
In response, Williams wrote on social media: "Dear John, I adore and respect you but please please keep me out of your statements that are not factually based.
"I've never played anyone ranked "there" nor do I have time. Respect me and my privacy as I'm trying to have a baby. Good day sir."
