Serena Williams has been tipped to make a shock comeback at the upcoming US Open by her former coach Rick Macci.
During a remarkable career, Williams won 23 women’s singles grand slams while adding 14 women’s doubles title and two mixed doubles crowns at slams. She spent 319 weeks as world No 1 and racked up 73 WTA Tour singles titles before playing her final match as a 40-year-old at the 2022 US Open – losing to Ajla Tomljanovic in the third round.
