Serena already practices on the actual US Open surface in her own backyard

The doomed 2020 tennis season has been seeing glimpses of revival these days, as the WTA season is set to resume the week of August 3rd in Palermo, Italy, and the US Open will take place after all, on the originally scheduled dates. Serena Williams can’t wait to get back to action and, as it was revealed during yesterday’s USTA press conference, the American is privileged to be practicing on the actual surface of the 2020 US Open, as well as of the Western & Southern Open, which will precede the Grand Slam at the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center.
