The Williams sisters are not done yet.
According to the New York Times, Venus and Serena Williams have been awarded a wild card for the women's doubles at Wimbledon 2026, the All England Club announced Tuesday (June 16), reuniting the most dominant doubles partnership in Grand Slam history on the grass where they built their legacy. Wimbledon begins June 29.
The sisters hold a flawless 14-0 record in Grand Slam doubles finals together — they have never lost one. Six of those titles came right here at Wimbledon, with their first in 2000 and their last in 2016. This will be their first doubles appearance at the tournament in a decade.
The announcement comes on the heels of Serena's competitive return after nearly four years away. She teamed up with Canadian teenager Victoria Mboko at Queen's Club earlier this month, winning their opening match before Mboko was forced to withdraw with a knee injury. Serena has since been keeping her match fitness sharp at the Berlin Open alongside Karolína Muchová ahead of Wimbledon.
Venus, who turns 46 on Wednesday (June 17), has been competing sporadically and has never stopped believing. Between them, the sisters have won 21 titles and medals at the All England Club across singles, doubles, and the 2012 London Olympics — where they claimed doubles gold on the same courts they'll step onto again this summer.
Wimbledon starts June 29.
