US Open
Williams announced she is excited to play at this year’s US Open after there were doubts the 38-year-old would participate in New York later next month.
Strict measures have been proposed by the US Tennis Association to enable the grand slam to take place, including the proposal of creating a bubble for players at an airport hotel outside Manhattan — where most players stay — and restricting entourage numbers to just one.
Williams’ coach Patrick Mouratoglou had told CNN he doubted she would play in New York if her family and daughter, Olympia, couldn’t be there with her.
Another grand slam victory, the last of which she won at the 2017 Australian Open, would see Williams tie with Margaret Court’s all-time record of 24.
