Tennis nice Serena Williams will host the 2024 ESPYs in July, ESPN introduced on Tuesday.
The 23-times Grand Slam champion, who retired after the 2022 U.S. Open and is extensively considered one of many biggest tennis gamers of all time, will take the stage July 11 at The Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles.
“It is a dream come true for me, and one thing I’ve needed to do for so long as I can keep in mind,” Williams, 42, mentioned in an ESPN information launch.
“It has been a sensational 12 months for sports activities and an unprecedented one for feminine athletes. I can’t wait to have a good time everybody on-stage in July.”
The ESPYs, that are co-produced by ESPN and Full Day Productions, commemorate the previous 12 months in sports activities by recognizing main athletic achievements, reliving unforgettable moments, and saluting the main performers and performances.
