American tennis stars Serena and Venus Williams are set to reunite for the ladies’ doubles event at Wimbledon 2026. The legendary sisters have received a wild card entry, marking their return to the tournament where they have claimed six doubles titles together—their most recent triumph in 2016. Interestingly, Serena and Venus also entered as wildcards when they captured their first two Wimbledon doubles titles in 2000 and 2002, adding a sense of history and anticipation to their latest comeback.
After nearly four years away from professional tennis, 44-year-old Serena Williams made a sensational return to the sport last week, winning her first-round doubles match at Queen’s Club alongside partner Victoria Mboko.
Venus, on the other hand, has been managing a targeted, part-time competitive schedule since making a major comeback in July 2025. After a 16-month injury hiatus, she returned to the court at the 2025 Citi Open in Washington D.C., where she famously defeated Peyton Stearns. That victory made her the oldest woman to win a WTA tour-level singles match in 21 years.
With a comeback of this magnitude, tennis lovers around the world can expect a surge of excitement as the Williams sisters return to the court, rekindling memories of their legendary partnership and bringing renewed glory to the game. Wimbledon 2026 is set to take place over 14 days, from Monday, June 29 to Sunday, July 12, at the historic All England Lawn Tennis Club in London, England.
