Serena Williams won't bow out early at the 2013 U.S. Open after suffering an early exit at the All England Club.

Williams was the hottest tennis player in the world before she was surprisingly ousted by Sabine Lisicki in the fourth round of the 2013 Wimbledon Championships. Lisicki's victory snapped Williams' 34-match win streak, as noted by Sports Illustrated's Beyond the Baseline:



The No. 1 player in the world on the women's side wasn't the only star to suffer a surprising loss early at Wimbledon, though. Throughout the two-week affair in London, many a top player fell by way of shocking upset or by way of injury.

It was one of the weirdest Wimbledon Championships we've seen in ages, but it won't define the rest of the season. These players will bounce back with strong performances at the 2013 U.S. Open later this summer.

As noted by Jon Wertheim of SI.com, Williams' loss to Lisicki wasn't as shocking as some of the other big upsets at this year's Wimbledon Championships. Lisicki is a phenomenal player on grass surfaces, and she "might have the best serve in the women's game after Williams," according to Wertheim.



Additionally, every hot streak must come to an end at some point. Winning 34 matches in a row was an incredible feat, and Williams will surely come to play at the U.S. Open with a chip on her shoulder after suffering her first loss since mid-February.

Williams is also a hard-court master.



She's won the U.S. Open title four times—including a victory last season—and will be the favorite to win this year's tournament. Throughout her celebrated career, she has a record of 65-9 at the U.S. Open, and she'll be tough to stop once again this year.
