Serena Williams is set to make her comeback at Wimbledon a year after her last match.
The 23-time Grand Slam singles champion made a tearful exit in the first round 12 months ago after retiring during the first set due to a leg injury and doubts have been growing about whether she would return.
But on Tuesday, Williams posted on Instagram: “SW and SW19. It’s a date. 2022 See you there.”
It is unclear whether Williams, now ranked a lowly 1208, is intending to play singles or doubles, which is less demanding physically.
She could have entered using a protected ranking reserved for players who have been sidelined through a long-term injury but did not do so and will therefore need a wild card.
