When Serena Williams is playing at Queens tomorrow and how to watch legend’s comeback

Serena Williams will make a sensational comeback to professional tennis this week, entering the Queen’s Club Championships doubles bracket alongside Canada’s Victoria Mboko.

She insists, though, that this comeback is for the love of the game rather than to add to her already bulging trophy cabinet.

“I don’t need to win,” she said.

“I’ve won more than most people have in their whole lives, so it’s not that important to me, and it’s important that I keep reminding myself of that, because I don’t have anything to prove.

“I don’t have anything to lose, and everything here is just to gain.”

Serena Williams will get her Queens campaign underway on Tuesday, June 9, 2026.

She will partner Victoria Mboko in the doubles bracket, facing Erin Routliffe and Nicole Melichar-Martinez in the round of 16.

Her match is currently slated to get underway at 5.30pm BST, as the last match of the day in the Andy Murray Arena.

TV channel: In the UK, Queens will be televised live on BBC One and BBC Two.
