Tennis icon Serena Williams is scheduled to take on an opponent less than half her age when she battles 20-year-old Maya Joint in the opening round at Wimbledon, marking her first competitive singles appearance in almost four years.

The legendary seven-time Wimbledon singles titleholder, now 44, accepted a wild-card invitation to the grass-court tournament. In addition to her singles campaign, she is also set to participate in the doubles event alongside her older sister Venus, who celebrated her 46th birthday last week.
