Venus Williams gör comeback i Franska öppna i dubbel

Venus Williams kommer att tävla i Roland Garros för första gången sedan 2021. 45-åringen bildar par med Hailey Baptiste i dubbelturneringen.

Vid 45 års ålder är Venus Williams tillbaka i Franska öppna efter fem års frånvaro från huvudturneringen. Hon bildar par med Hailey Baptiste och får direktinträde baserat på deras kombinerade ranking, vilket gör att de slipper förlita sig på ett wildcard. Detta blir hennes första framträdande i turneringen sedan 2021, då hon åkte ut i den första omgången tillsammans med Coco Gauff.
