Serena Williams, a 44-year-old tennis legend, will make her return to Wimbledon after accepting a wildcard to compete in the singles tournament.
Williams, who has won women’s singles at Wimbledon seven times, will face an opponent to be determined in the first round on June 29.
She has a total of 23 Grand Slam victories and is chasing Margaret Court’s record of 24 Grand Slam wins.
Career Accolades
Williams has won each Grand Slam – Australian Open, French Open, and the U.S. Open – at least three times, and alongside her sister, Venus, has accomplished the career ‘Golden Slam’ in singles and doubles.
She has always loved playing on grass, winning 107 of her 123 singles matches on the surface, which bodes well for her return to Wimbledon.
