Serena Williams wants to play singles tournaments before the US Open, unlike her preparation for Wimbledon, the American legend’s coach Rennae Stubbs said yesterday.
Williams, 44, played two doubles matches in preparation for her comeback to singles tennis at the All England Club, but lost in the first round last week.
The 23-time Grand Slam champion then had to withdraw from the doubles with sister Venus due to a knee injury suffered in the defeat by Australian Maya Joint.
“I’ll leave it to her to discuss her medical stuff and how she’s feeling but I know that for her trying to play, certainly something before the US Open will be something she would like to do,” Stubbs told reporters at Wimbledon.
“She doesn’t want to go and do what she did here, which was just play singles, at the US Open, but at the same time it’s going to depend on physically how she’s doing.”
