Two-time Grand Slam mixed doubles champion Andrei Olkhovsky believes the former world number one Serena Williams was not ready to compete at Wimbledon, it will be difficult for an athlete to return to a high level.
Williams in the first round of the Wimbledon tournament lost to the 115th racket in the world French Armoni Tan with the score 5:7, 6:1, 6:7 (7:10). The 40-year-old American returned to the field in June after a year-long hiatus.
– It’s hard to say how she felt during the game. In my opinion, she was not ready for Wimbledon. First physically.
If she continues to play, to perform in tournaments, the game will come back to her, she will get in shape. She will play a few tournaments before the US Open, but it will be difficult for her to return to the level we are all used to,” Olkhovsky said as quoted by Gazeta.Ru.
Williams is a 23-time Grand Slam singles winner.
