Serena Williams has seemingly confirmed her return to professional tennis at the age of 44.
Williams, the 23-time grand slam champion, announced her decision to step away from the sport in 2022, her last match a third-round defeat to Ajla Tomljanovic at the US Open.
But reports of her return emerged last week and, in a post on her X (formerly Twitter) account on Monday, Williams all but confirmed her comeback.
The post featured a video of her on the tennis court while her phone received continuous text message alerts. The video ended with the caption ‘Guess everybody heard the news’.
