Serena Williams confirmed that she will return to the action in January. She will defend her Australian Open title which she won earlier this year.
Serena Williams said:
“It’s the most outrageous plan. I just want to put that out there. That’s, like, three months after I give birth. I’m not walking anything back, but I’m just saying it’s pretty intense.”
We wish Serena the heartiest congratulations. Also, we wish her speedy recovery so that we can see her in action as soon as possible.
