Serena Williams and her older sister Venus Williams will play together at Wimbledon in the women’s doubles after the All England Club awards them a doubles wildcard, ending a four-year absence from the event as a pair. Multiple outlets report that Serena, 44, and Venus, 45, are returning for the tournament’s doubles competition and that they have already established a strong Wimbledon record together, including six doubles titles at the championships. The coverage also notes that Serena has recently returned to Grand Slam singles tennis for the first time in four years, playing at Wimbledon’s singles draw before moving on to doubles. After her singles match, she continues at the tournament in women’s doubles with Venus. Reporting further describes family support watching from her player box during her singles return, including her husband Alexis Ohanian and their daughters Olympia and Adira, alongside Venus and Venus’s husband Andrea Preti. Wimbledon starts on June 29, and the sisters’ doubles campaign is set to begin later in the tournament, with the US Open mentioned as an upcoming focus.
