Asked if she will play the Tokyo Olympics, Serena Williams said she’s “not on the Olympic list,” and if for some reason she is, she shouldn’t be.
Williams didn’t explicitly say that she will not play the Tokyo Games, but said she will not be thinking about the Tokyo Games going forward.
“There’s a lot of reasons that I made my Olympic decision,” Williams said at her pre-Wimbledon news conference on Sunday, “and I don’t feel like going into them today, but maybe another day.”
Williams played at the Olympics in 2000, 2008, 2012 and 2016, winning four gold medals between singles and doubles.
