The 2022 Wimbledon major tournament will begin this week in London and at the age of 40, Serena Williams will take the court this week after nearly a full year away from the game she has dominated for most of the past two decades.

But what real chance will Serena have to make it to the final match in two weeks?
Karen Pastaina, of Tennis Panorama, joined Sam & Greg on the Weekends to preview the Men’s and Women’s Wimbledon brackets, and when asked about Serena, Karen replied by saying, “We will see what kind of form she is in.”
Williams has won Wimbledon seven times during her career, and if she is going to win The Venus Rosewater Dish for an eighth time, she will need to take advantage of a Women’s Bracket that has a few big names missing this week.
“Naomi Osaka has a left Achilles injury, and Madison Keys pulled out also” pointed out Karen when going through some of the big names that will not be playing at Wimbledon.
However, there will be several hurdles waiting for Serena if she will challenge for the title including Coco Gauff, Iga Swiatek, and Sloane Stephens.
