Tennis at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games: A Wimbledon race against time in Carson

Tennis at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics will feature a tight four-day turnaround after the Wimbledon final before singles competition begins in Carson. World Tennis announced that six wildcard spots will be available, including two reserved for former Olympic gold medalists or Grand Slam champions, a rule that could allow Venus (46) and Serena Williams (44) to compete in their hometown. Serena recently returned to singles play at Wimbledon, losing to Maya Joint of Australia, while both sisters are expected to appear at the U.S. Open later this summer.
