Summary
Saturday's first-round doubles match will reunite Serena and Venus Williams at Wimbledon against Argentina's Solana Sierra and Colombia's Camila Osorio.
Serena said she tweaked her knee late in the first set of her 6-3, 6-7(6), 6-3 singles loss to 20-year-old Maya Joint, but plans to do everything possible to be ready.
The sisters last played doubles together at the 2022 U.S. Open, where they lost in the first round, though both have logged separate doubles matches during Serena's June return and Venus's 2026 season.
A win would send the six-time Wimbledon champions into a second-round meeting with ninth seeds Ellen Perez and Demi Schuurs; the pair own 22 titles together, including 14 Grand Slams and three Olympic golds.
