Exit Serena, enter Venus for mixed doubles duty

Serena Williams may have made her Wimbledon exit but sister Venus will battle for family pride by teaming up with Britain’s Jamie Murray in the mixed doubles.

 The 42-year-old American, who has not played on the tour since the Chicago WTA event last August, is a two-time Grand Slam mixed doubles champion.

However, both those titles came back in 1998 alongside Justin Gimelstob at the Australian Open and French Open.

Venus and Murray have been awarded a wildcard into this year’s tournament at the All England Club.

They will take on Michael Venus and Alicja Rosolska in the first round.
