Tennis players can quit the sport, but the sport will never leave them. Even now, tennis fans who have been following the sport for a very long time miss their favorite tennis players from various eras. How can it be simple for tennis players who have already been on the court when it’s difficult for the spectators?

Well, in a similar vein, as Wimbledon approaches, Serena Williams‘ former coach Rennae Stubbs expresses a desire to return to the tennis court to play Doubles with the Williams sisters and another tennis great, Samantha Stosur. Considering the 43-year-old Venus’ continuous grit, both the Australian tennis players despair as they admire the American tennis legend.

Stubbs took to her Instagram account to share an old video that was posted by Wimbledon on their official Instagram account. It was a throwback video of a match that was played in 2009 in the ladies’ doubles final. That year, the Australian double pair defeated the Williams sisters and picked up the trophy. She shared that video and wrote, “Sammy, wish we were all still doing this! I mean @VenusWilliams is! @Wimbledon I can’t wait to be back!”?

Along with that, she also tagged the 23-time Grand Slam champions, Venus and Stosur. Seeing that memory, even her 39-year-old former doubles partner took to her Instagram story to share her take on the same. She wrote, “I wish,” putting her hand up, that she was ready to really relive that doubles memory once more. In addition, while they admire the 41-year-old tennis pro, Stubbs is particularly moved by Venus Williams‘ unwavering commitment to the sport.
