Serena Williams plans to compete in at least one singles tournament before the US Open, according to her coach Rennae Stubbs. Williams, who returned to singles play at Wimbledon after a knee injury, aims to avoid a repeat of her Grand Slam comeback strategy.

Despite a first-round Wimbledon exit, Williams showed flashes of her former ability. Stubbs confirmed the 44-year-old's desire to continue her singles career, but emphasized that her physical condition, particularly her knee, will be the deciding factor. The coach noted that Williams wants more singles matches under her belt before the US Open begins on August 23.

Potential tune-up events include WTA 1000 tournaments in Toronto and Cincinnati. Williams' decision hinges on her recovery and personal considerations, including family and business commitments. Her return to singles play is a significant development for the tennis world, with fans eager to see her compete again.
