Player profile

Serena Williams returns with a record that already spans generations

Serena Williams owns 23 Grand Slam singles titles, 14 women's doubles majors with Venus Williams and two mixed doubles majors, alongside four Olympic gold medals. Her US Open singles collection alone contains six trophies, from her 1999 breakthrough through a three-peat in 2012-14. After describing her 2022 New York appearance as an evolution away from tennis, Williams returned to competition in 2026, first in doubles at Queen's Club and then at Wimbledon. Her New York comeback at age 44 adds a new competitive chapter without changing the scale of what she had already achieved.

US Open story

Serena Williams and Carlos Alcaraz open against Routliffe and Glasspool

Williams received a 2026 US Open mixed doubles wild card with Carlos Alcaraz. Their first-round match against Erin Routliffe and Lloyd Glasspool is scheduled and has not started. It is Williams's first New York appearance since her 2022 singles farewell and her first US Open mixed doubles campaign since winning the 1998 title with Max Mirnyi. That 28-year span is the central historical marker. It sits beside six singles championships and two women's doubles titles, but this entry is a distinct event with a new partner and no result yet recorded.

What to watch

Serena Williams brings first-strike history to a first-time Alcaraz partnership

Williams and Alcaraz have never played a tournament together, so the opening minutes will show how they divide the middle and organize returns against two established doubles players. Williams's serve, return and ability to finish a short ball made her a champion in every major discipline; Alcaraz adds speed and improvisation from deeper positions. The most useful viewing detail is their transition after the return: whether Williams can take the front position while Alcaraz creates angles, or whether Routliffe and Glasspool secure the net first. It is a tactical debut, not a ceremonial appearance.
