In a since-expired Instagram Story video, the 23-time grand slam champion told Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers that she’ll be once again playing the world’s oldest tennis competition this summer — in a move that would mark her return to the sport.
“We’ve been talking about my comeback, and he’s been hyping me up and getting me ready for Wimbledon,” Williams, 40, told her followers, of Rodgers, 38. “Can’t wait!”
She went on to clarify to Rodgers that “Wimbledon’s before the US Open” when he asked why she wouldn’t be participating in this year’s event.
