Serena Williams’ Wimbledon singles return ended in a 6-3, 6-7(6), 6-3 loss to Maya Joint on June 30, marking her second-oldest-ever Wimbledon women’s singles appearance in the Open era. Joint, stunned by her own win, admitted nerves nearly derailed her before the match even began. Williams now shifts focus to doubles with sister Venus, while Joint advances to face Alexandra Eala in round two.
