The seriousness of the injury was initially misjudged by many, and it has since forced the 7 time Wimbledon champion to take a step back from the remaining 2021 season. Serena also skipped the Australian Open 2022 as a result.
Fans around the world await Williams’s comeback on the court. She is currently ranked 244 in the WTA singles rankings.
