Serena and Venus Williams to play doubles together again at Wimbledon

Tennis legends Serena and Venus Williams are set to reunite on the doubles court at Wimbledon, accepting a wild card invitation from the All England Club. The announcement comes as Serena, 44, makes her return to professional tennis after a nearly four-year hiatus, while Venus, who turns 46 on Wednesday, continues to compete sporadically.

The Williams sisters boast an impressive record together, having won 14 Grand Slam titles in doubles, including six at Wimbledon. Their last doubles appearance together was at the 2022 U.S. Open, where they were eliminated in the first round. This reunion at Wimbledon, a venue rich with their past triumphs, is a significant moment for tennis fans.

Serena recently played her first doubles match with partner Victoria Mboko at Queen's Club in London, winning their opening match before withdrawing due to Mboko's knee injury. She was also scheduled to play doubles in Berlin. Meanwhile, other Wimbledon draws have been announced, including singles wild cards for Maja Chwalinska and several British players, as well as for former Grand Slam champions Stan Wawrinka and Grigor Dimitrov. Men's doubles wild cards were also awarded to Alexander Bublik and Nick Kyrgios.
