Seven-time Australian Open champion Serena Williams is coming back to professional tennis at the age of 44, returning to the sport she dominated for two decades before famously "evolving" away from the daily grind of competition.
First up for the 23-time Grand Slam singles champion is the doubles tournament at Queen's Club. But Wimbledon and the US Open could be next.
"It seems like she's trying to work her way up maybe to the US Open, and those fans would be so ready to see her back on a singles court there," former No. 1 Lindsay Davenport said at the French Open after the WTA Tour announced that Williams has accepted a wild-card invitation to play doubles at next week's grass-court tournament in London.
