It’s amazing how a sport like tennis can make its way to our heart after following our favourite players the entire year, getting proud of them as they make their way up to the world ranking, learning about their journey to success and as well as the times they have overcome failure. The extreme skill possessed by the professionals is not as easy as it looks, did you know that the average serving speed is around 170km/h?

When we think about the world record of serving speeds for both men and women the numbers are unbelievable. We all know how powerful Venus Williams is but looking at her numbers is even more impressive.

So, let’s take a look at the serving speed of the amazing women of Tennis.

In first place we have Sabine Lisicki, (this surprised me a lot I thought that in the first place we would have one of the Williams sisters) who is a German Professional Player-she turned professional in 2006 and won her first WTA in 2009. So far she has won 4 WTA and is the owner of the fastest serve at the incredible speed of 210.8km/h.

Second place we have Venus Williams with a speed of 207.6km/h and straight in at third place, we have her sister Serena Williams with a speed of 206.4 Km/h.

Second place goes to Albano Olivetti with 257.5 km/h, and third place is John Isner with 253 km/h.
