Coming to tennis, Williams began the season in Australia and reached the semifinal of the first Grand Slam event of the season. After that, she had a below-average clay season and came as far as the fourth round of the French Open. 

She was forced to withdraw from the opening round match at the Wimbledon Championships as she injured her hamstring during the initial stages. She was absent from the US Open due to the same injury.
