Serena Returns to Wimbledon Singles | Pro Tennis News

Serena Williams is making a triumphant return to singles tennis at Wimbledon, taking on Maya Joint in her first match since retiring in 2022—just weeks after her doubles debut at Queen’s Club. Teammates with Venus for the first time since 2016, Serena’s comeback is fueled by her belief that life is short and she must seize the moment. Though she showed some rust early, her legendary status and seven Wimbledon singles titles make her a force to be reckoned with—even against a ranked 87th opponent. With play starting Tuesday at 8:30 AM ET on Centre Court, fans can catch the action on ESPN and the Tennis Channel. Young stars like Mirra Andreeva admit they’d be intimidated by facing Serena, proving her influence transcends rankings.
