The clay-court season didn’t turn out to be great for Serena as she failed to impress at the Italian Open and the Parma Open 2021. Even though she gave some pretty good performances at the French Open 2021, Elina Rybakina thrashed her in straight sets in the pre-quarters of the tournament.

Serena looked quite confident at the Wimbledon Championships 2021. However, she injured her leg and had to withdraw from the Grand Slam without completing a single set. Since then, she hasn’t played a professional tennis match.

Fans believe that Serena Williams will make an incredible comeback on the court soon. Will she be able to win her 24th major before bidding goodbye to the sport?
