Legendary tennis stars Venus and Serena Williams are set to compete together at Wimbledon for the first time in a decade. The Williams sisters have just secured wild card entries in the women’s doubles category for the tournament, which starts on July 3. The last time the two competed at Wimbledon, back in 2016, they clinched the Women’s Doubles trophy against the duo Tímea Babos and Yaroslava Shvedova, marking their sixth career win at the tournament. “Guess everybody heard the news. I’ve got to change my number,” Serena quipped on Instagram earlier this month about her upcoming return to the sport. The last time Serena and Venus played together was during the 2022 U.S. Open, where they lost in the first round. Serena prepared for her return at a doubles tournament at Queen’s Club in London, where she won the first match before her partner suffered an injury that forced them to withdraw. Venus is also on her way to a comeback after a 16-month break from the sport, returning in July 2025. She lost at the U.S. Open in 2025, but believes better things are on the horizon. “I definitely had a bit of a slow start, but it’s not really a bad thing,” Venus said.
