Serena Williams has hinted at a potential tennis comeback with the first grand slam of the season just weeks away.

The 36-year-old posted a picture on her Instagram page – with no caption – of her tennis bag on court, suggesting she is back in training.  The Australian Open gets under way on January 15.

She gave birth to a girl in September and posted this picture on social media last week with the caption: “Be excited. Be very excited….” to hint that training has already begun.

He told Herald Sun earlier this month: “She’s got her visa, she’s entered, she’s practising and she’s probably just got to find a bit more space for a bigger entourage.

“There’s no question that she’ll be ready in our view and she wants to break a record that is Margaret Court’s.”
