It is worth noting that Macci often posts about Venus and Serena and their stories from their early days. However, this time, he shared a piece of advice for Serena, which could prove to be vital for her chances at this year’s Wimbledon. 

Centre Court practice for Serena at Wimbledon 2022

Yesterday, Rafael Nadal and Matteo Berrettini became the first players in history to practice on the Centre Court before the tournament. Later, 7-time Wimbledon champion, Serena Williams also took part in the practice session on the Centre Court. In previous years, many players complained about slipping during the early matches. So, Wimbledon decided to let a few top players practice on the Centre Court before the first-round matches. 

Interestingly, this could be a good thing for the American tennis player, as she will get used to the surface and the court before her first-round match. Incidentally, she retired from the first-round match last year after suffering a hamstring injury.

This year, she did not get that much match practice before the tournament. She only played two doubles matches at the Eastbourne International tournament. Even though she reached the semi-final; she had to withdraw from her match due to her partner Ons Jabeur’s unfortunate injury. 

Moreover, she has a really tough draw ahead of her, as she could potentially face 6 seeded players en route to the final, including Coco Gauff, Iga Swiatek, and others.
