Amid buzz including Novak Djokovic's recent endorsement, former players Naomi Broady and Naomi Cavaday predict Serena Williams could reunite with sister Venus for doubles at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. The 44-year-old 23-time Grand Slam singles champion became eligible after re-entering tennis' anti-doping program late 2025.
Serena Williams re-entered the anti-doping pool late 2025, regaining eligibility on February 22, 2026, and has been training rigorously ahead of a WTA Tour return.
Building on speculation from Djokovic at Indian Wells—who anticipated her comeback and a possible doubles stint with Venus—Naomi Broady suggested the sisters target the 2028 LA Olympics on home soil. "I think the idea is to play doubles at the Olympics," Broady told Sky Sports. "It will be at home in LA." The pair have 14 Grand Slam doubles titles, and Broady called Olympic gold a potential "fairytale ending."
Naomi Cavaday echoed the hype to Tennis365: "It will be quite a spectacle." She expects Williams to rapidly reach top-10 level despite her age and hiatus, contending for Slams and overpowering non-elite foes like Aryna Sabalenka or Elena Rybakina. "I think her level walks to top 10."
No comeback date is confirmed, but Wimbledon this summer is tipped. Cavaday noted Williams' fiercer drive versus Venus' more recreational approach.
