Another Wimbledon under way. Always had a somewhat jaundiced view of comeback bids - Serena Williams lost her first round match in three sets to Maya Joint, an American currently ranked 87 (ATP). The singles match was the 44-year-old Williams’s first since the 2022 US Open in which she lost in the third round. At the Queen’s Club Tourney earlier this month, her doubles appearance was her first appearance on a court in 1,375 days.
Old timer “Stanimal” (nickname courtesy Roger) Warinka also went out first round.
