Serena and Venus Williams are getting their Sister Act back together for doubles at the US Open. Know more:
The American siblings, who have won two of their 14 women’s doubles Grand Slam titles at Flushing Meadows, were given a wild-card entry by the US Tennis Association on Saturday, making it their first tournament as a team in more than four years.
Their other Grand Slam triumphs in doubles: six at Wimbledon, four at the Australian Open and two at the French Open. The most recent came at the All England Club in 2016.That’s all aside from their combined total of 30 major trophies in singles—23 for Serena, and seven for Venus. She has gone 1-3 in singles in 2022, including a first-round loss at Wimbledon in June, and said less than three weeks ago that “the countdown has begun” to the close of her time as a professional player so she can focus on having another child and on her business interests.
