Serena Williams returns to Queen's Club doubles at 44

Tennis legend Serena Williams is taking to the court again after nearly four years away, competing in the women's doubles at London's Queen's Club tournament. The 44-year-old American is making her long-awaited comeback at one of the most prestigious grass-court tournaments.

One of tennis's biggest names, Serena Williams, is preparing to return to competitive play after nearly four years away. The American star will compete in the women's doubles at London's Queen's Club tournament, marking her official return to professional tennis.

The 44-year-old Williams stepped back from active playing in 2023, but her comeback at Queen's has given tennis fans reason to watch tournaments with renewed excitement. Queen's Club is a traditional warm-up to Wimbledon, held on the grass-court calendar as the pinnacle event of the London season.

Williams's career is written in gold in tennis history – she has won 23 Grand Slam singles titles and ranks among the greatest athletes of all time. A return to doubles play is a rare step, suggesting that the legend has not entirely put competitive tennis behind her.
