Williams has been the most dominant player in women’s tennis over the last two decades. She has not only stayed at the top of the rankings, but also won an astounding 23 Grand Slams. However, she is still one short of Margaret Court’s all-time record.
Despite slipping to 1208 in the rankings, Serena will aim to get a good run on grass to bring her up to match fitness. She last won a Wimbledon title in 2016 and her last Slam win came in 2017 (Australian Open). After returning in 2018, she has come ever so close to equaling the record but has fallen short on every occasion.
