Serena Williams

"I don't have anything to prove, I don't have anything to lose and everything here is just to gain."

"I don't need to win. 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."

"This whole journey is like, I'm putting no pressure on myself."

"It's summer, the kids aren't in school, so it's a perfect time to get out there, have fun, and see what happens."

"I don't have anything to prove, I don't have anything to lose and everything here is just to gain."

"I don't need to win. I've won more than most people have in their whole lives."

"For me right now... it's really about my kids getting to see me play."

"I don't need to win. I've won more than most people have in their whole lives, so it's not that important to me..."

"This whole journey is like, I'm putting no pressure on myself."

"I got tired of sitting at home!"

"What do you think? A C-minus?"

"I had so much fun playing with Vicky [Mboko]. She really was able to hold up the team and play big on the big points - I could really rely on her."

"I had nothing better to do - I got tired of sitting at home!"

"I never got to play here [during her singles career], it was always just the men, but it feels so special to play at some place so iconic and where I saw so many of my friends win."

"you can do anything at any age"

"I had so much fun playing with Vicky [Mboko]. She really was able to hold up the team and play big on the big points - I could really rely on her."

"I had nothing better to do - I got tired of sitting at home! My kids are out of school for the summer so why not?!"

"I never got to play here [during her singles career], it was always just the men, but it feels so special to play at some place so iconic and where I saw so many of my friends win."

"My God, I think I would give myself – what do you think? A C-minus?"

"It was so fun. I had so much fun playing with Victoria."

"I have yet to decide whether to make a comeback in singles as well."

"It was so much fun, it felt so natural playing with Vicky."

"I had no intention of actually being here today, to be perfectly honest with you."

"You think I'm ready for singles? I need to get to work."

"I had no intention of actually being here today, to be perfectly honest with you."

"My daughter Olympia told me I should play with Venus. She's always right."

"You think I'm ready for singles? I need to get to work."

"You think I'm ready for singles? I need to get to work."

"That's a question I can't answer. Who knows? Who knows where I'll pop up?"

"It's been a very easy retransition. I'm back in the house that I stayed in [for] several years."

"Success is enjoying myself and sticking to my gameplan that my coach gives me, being disciplined - and that's what I'm trying to do."

"I'm heartbroken to have to withdraw from doubles."

"Coming back to compete again has been a gift, and the opportunity to play alongside Venus once more meant the world to me."

"Thank you to the fans after your incredible support and for making this comeback so meaningful."

"I thought it was fun, it was special, it was good."
