Venus Williams is one of the best grasscourt players. The 42-year-old has got five out of her seven Grand Slam titles at Wimbledon. Since last year’s Wimbledon, she has played only one match, way back, just before last year’s US Open.

Just like her sister Serena, Venus has also been out of action for a long time. However, Serena Williams announced her return earlier this month and is all set to play her first-round match at Wimbledon today. While Venus hinted at taking her time to come back, fans were speculating a doubles return for the 42-year-old. Notably, fans spotted Venus practicing at the Wimbledon 2022.

Venus to pair up with Jamie Murray to play Mixed doubles

According to reports, Venus is all set to make a wildcard entry in mixed doubles at Wimbledon 2022. While the draws for singles and women’s double are long made, the sign-in for mixed doubles is still open and Venus is going to use the Wildcard to enter the tournament.

Talking about her partner, the 42-year-old will pair up with five-time Grand Slam mixed title winner Jamie Murray. The older brother of Andy Murray has proven himself to be a good mixed doubles player, and two out of his five Grand Slam titles have come at Wimbledon.
