Ever since Serena Williams walked away from professional tennis after the 2022 U.S. Open, there has always been the question of if she would return the sport in some capacity. Although she continued to deny any “unretirement,” those rumors recently have been fueled. And, as of Wednesday, Williams herself added some fuel to the fire.
When appearing on The Today Show on Wednesday, the 23-time major champion was asked by Savannah Guthrie about the International Tennis Integrity Agency reinstating her to be drug tested. When this news came out in December, Williams quickly shut down any rumors with a tweet. But, her response (or non-response) on Wednesday makes it seem like she isn’t shutting down any possibilities of returning to tennis.
