23-time Grand Slam champion, Serena Williams is currently in recovery mode after withdrawing from the Australian Open 2022. In the meantime, Williams is spending some precious time with her husband Alexis and daughter Olympia. They have been going on vacations together and Serena is enjoying her time off from the tennis court.

Meanwhile, young and talented Croatian tennis player, Borna Coric, is also recovering from his shoulder surgery. The Croatian was one of the first players to arrive in Australia and was hoping for a run at the Australian Open. Unfortunately, Coric had to pull out of the tournament at the last moment. Recently, he posted a photo on Instagram holding a glass of gin, and Serena had an interesting comment to make.

It’s always fun to see two stars from the tennis world engage in such friendly banter. Hopefully, they will have that gin night soon as fans are hoping to see them back on the tour, in their natural habitat. 

Both players are eying for a comeback

Borna Coric was in Australia to play the Grand Slam, but things didn’t go according to his plan. He failed to recover in time and decided to withdraw from the tournament. Earlier, the Croatian had a shoulder surgery in May that forced him to withdraw from the US Open 2021. Notably, Coric last played in March 2021 and hence, he will definitely look for a stronger comeback in 2022.
