The installation instructions for TensorFlow are located here. You'll see that there are a few more steps than just using pip. Long story short, once you're set up in a new environment use pip install --upgrade tensorflow

That being said, you may want to use Anaconda to install it rather than pip. Anaconda is generally better as a package manager, and whenever you can you should be using Anaconda.
