Serena Williams has accepted wild cards to return to Wimbledon, competing in both singles and doubles with Venus after a four-year absence. The doubles run is already underway at Queen’s Berlin events, with singles to follow at SW19. The draw and schedule place her on Centre Court for the final match on Day 1 and continue her comeback story.
Williams has returned to Wimbledon singles after four years, losing to Maya Joint in a dramatic first-round match on Centre Court. Joint, ranked 87th, secured a 6-3, 6-7(6), 6-3 victory as Williams showed flashes of her former brilliance but faded in the final set amid the atmosphere of a historic occasion.
