Serena Williams on the court

Even though Serena Williams is one of the greatest tennis athletes in history, she has been out of the court for a long time now. The former World No. 1 last played at the 2021 Wimbledon. Eyeing an 8th Wimbledon title, Williams entered the All-England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club as the 6th seed. She was up against Aliaksandra Sasnovich in the first round at The Championships.

However,  Serena suffered a major hamstring injury after slipping on the grass. The injury forced her to withdraw from the tournament in the first set in her tournament opener. However, the worst was yet to come. The injury not just only forced Serena to withdraw from the tournament but also forced her to stay out from the remaining season.
