The 40-year-old American, who received a free ticket to the tournament after missing the last year due to injury, was eliminated in the first round after a thriller against Harmony Tan: "I did pretty well in some cases, but it was clearly not enough for me."


Serena Williams made her comeback to the tennis courts last night (Tuesday) after a year, but was already eliminated in the first round of the Wimbledon tournament for the second year in a row.

After a long thriller of three minutes and ten minutes, the 40-year-old American who received a free ticket to the tournament after being absent for the past year due to injury, met Harmony Tan (115, France), but surrendered 7: 5, 1: 6, 7: 6 ( 7).

Serena's fall came precisely when she marched with a 4: 5 advantage in the third set and submitted for victory in the match, but then Tan broke and later also turned.

Later in the decisive battle, Serena forced a tiebreaker and even led it 0: 4, but the Frenchman came out on top on the way to a 7:10 victory in the tiebreaker, 6: 7 in the battle and 1: 2 in the entire game.

"She's beaten a legend."

Serena summed up the great drama at the end: "I think I physically endured but in the last two points, I really already suffered there. In order to win such critical points you need peace of mind. It is always the key to win such points. I think I did quite well in some cases, But it was clear that was not enough for me. "
