The latest news that Serena Williams’ long-term coach Patrick Mouratoglou has announced full-time partnership with Simona Halep reignited rumours that Serena doesn’t plan to return to competition. However, just hours later on Thursday the American hinted a comeback at Wimbledon 2022!
Williams hasn’t entered a tournament since last year’s Wimbledon, where she retired from her first-round match due to an ankle injury. In December, she postponed her comeback, saying that she needed more time to recover and wasn’t physically fit to play in Australia. After skipping all tournaments Down Under, Williams was largely silent about her return to competition.
