Serena Williams played her first match in almost a year at the 2022 Rothesay International Eastbourne, and it was a victory! The tennis legend teamed up with Tunisia’s Ons Jabeur for the first time and they defeated Sara Sorribes Tormo and Marie Bouzkova in the first round of the women’s doubles on Tuesday. Photographer Jimmie48 is providing us with a set of photos from the exciting tennis day on England’s south coast.
Wildcards Williams and Jabeur recovered from losing the first set 6-2, won the second set 6-3, and edged a see-saw match-tiebreak [13-11] on their third match point in front of an excited Eastbourne crowd.
