Serena Williams will put on her tennis outfit again this week at Queen’s WTA 500, where she will pair up with Victoria Mboko. But what about singles? What has led her back to the circuit? Many doubts that now have answers.

As expected, Queen’s tournament has done what had to be done in these days before the start of the competition. Being the event that will be remembered as the one where Serena Williams returned at the age of 44, the American sat in front of the press and answered all the pending questions. What reasons lie behind this comeback after a flawless career? To what extent does she feel motivated to play singles again? Does she have any goals in mind at this point? Reading this text will help you better understand the whole story.

Serena Williams explains the reasons for her return to the circuit

"In December, I said that I definitely wasn't coming back to the circuit, but I was talking to some people, just discussing different possibilities to have fun and do something a bit different. So, we kept talking and talking, until I thought: 'Why not?' The truth is, there isn't a better explanation."

Her family's reaction after announcing her return

"Everyone supports me a lot, everyone was saying to me, 'What are you thinking?' And I would reply, 'Well, right now it's summer, the kids aren't at school... so it's the perfect time to get out there, have fun, and see what happens."

Serena values playing singles, although not at this moment

"Throughout this process... I'm not putting any pressure on myself at the moment. I've had enough pressure, so right now, for me, it's really about... I don't know, there are many elements. It's about my kids being able to see me play. Olympia is a bit older now, Adira is still very young, but they are special moments. As an athlete, it's always about being the best you can be, being at the highest level. Maybe having the chance to do that one last time. It sounds great and exciting. As for singles... I can't say yes, and I can't say no. Not right now. I feel like I probably need to train a bit more if I want to play singles, we'll see if I get there. That's not my path right now."

What she missed the most about competition

"What I missed the most is simply the atmosphere. You really don't think about the traveling, even though I love traveling, you don't realize how much you love certain things. It's interesting because I've literally done it all my life, but when you leave something that you've been doing since I can honestly remember – I don't even remember a start date – I think you start taking it for granted. Now it's like there are different things that I can experience in a different way, things that I've never been able to do before, plus doing it with my family and having a slightly different experience."

Doubles partner along with Vicky Mboko

"I remember watching her play in Montreal, that was the tournament she won. I was quite impressed with her game, her attitude impressed me, what I liked most about her was that the next time she played, she kept on winning. That's when I thought, 'Ok, I love this.' She reminded me a lot of myself, sometimes you win a tournament and then you have a little dip, which is normal and okay too. But I loved how she had that drive, that determination. I had seen her play doubles here and there, it was tough because it was an important decision, it wasn't a last-minute decision, but a last-minute commitment. So I thought, 'Who am I going to play with now?' I had made the decision a while ago, but I didn't really commit until practically the last moment."

Serena Williams and a very clear message before her return to the courts

"I don't need to win, I've won more than most people win in their entire lives, so that's not important to me. It's important that I keep reminding myself because I have nothing to prove. I have nothing to lose, although I know that everything here is simply based on winning."
