Serena Williams will return to Wimbledon for the 2026 singles competition as a wild card, the tournament announced Sunday.

The tennis legend and 23-time Grand Slam singles champion made her return to professional tennis earlier this month at the HSBC Championships in London, where she competed in the doubles event. That run ended prematurely after an injury to her doubles partner.

Last week, it was announced Williams and her sister, Venus Williams, would play doubles at Wimbledon — more than two decades after they won their first title together there.

The tournament begins later this month.
