Serena Williams will return to Wimbledon singles competition after accepting a wild-card entry from the All England Club, marking her first singles appearance in nearly four years. The 44-year-old, a 23-time Grand Slam singles champion and seven-time Wimbledon singles winner, had already been set to play doubles with her sister Venus Williams. Her comeback follows her 2022 US Open retirement and a recent return to professional competition in doubles. The tournament begins June 29, with draws scheduled to be announced Friday, as Williams resumes her pursuit of tennis history on one of the sport’s biggest stages.
