Disappointed Serena couldn't hold the baby in her oven a few more days..poor little girl has got to go her entire life just being a Leo birthday baby ;-)

Hoergren,

I notice that Clara had to retire in the 2nd set against Fernandez? I hope it is not her back again?

I'm not sure what wa wrong. She had a medical timeout, where they took her temperature and bloodpressure and had a pill of some kind - and later another MTO in the lockerroom. She looked as if she wasn't feeling well. Maybe it was the heat?

Oh I am sorry to hear that, could have picked up a virus, she played well in her previous match, hopefully she makes a full recovery

I was thinking this the other day, and with Venus declaring she will be playing Cleveland next August, I wouldn't be surprised if Serena also made a brief return in 2024. Perhaps, they could cap off their career playing doubles at the Olympics and the US Open.
