Serena Williams has experienced the downside at WTA Berlin 2026, where she fell alongside Karolina Muchova in the first round with a double 6-4 score against Giuliana Olmos and Erin Routliffe, after 1 hour and 29 minutes of play where they did not have any break points and barely any opportunities on return.

Unlike her return to the WTA circuit in Queen's with Victoria Mboko, today Serena was much less precise, as was Muchova, who did not support the American tennis player either. In fact, Routliffe was Williams and Mboko's opponent in London a few days ago, so today she was able to avenge with a great performance alongside Olmos, advancing to the quarter-finals.

Serena Williams, with minimal preparation for Wimbledon

Despite having played only two matches in almost 4 years, there have been some positive aspects in Serena's game upon her return, although she has also been quite unlucky. Today she lost fair and square, but last week she could only play one match because Victoria Mboko got injured in her singles match and had to withdraw from the tournament, which will prevent the GOAT of women's tennis from arriving at Wimbledon with much match practice, which was her main goal for this grass court swing.

In fact, it has already been confirmed for the London Grand Slam that she will play alongside her sister Venus Williams, with whom she has won up to 6 times in the doubles draw. Despite both being over 40 years old and having passed the peak of their careers, it is always exciting to have them in the tournament, and a packed center court is expected to witness their debut at the All England Club.
