  5. Williams 'heartbroken' to retire injuredpublished at 22:54 British Summer Time 29 June 2021

    There was no news conference from Serena Williams tonight after she was forced to retire injured from her opening match, but she has just released this statement:

    "I was heartbroken to have to withdraw today after injuring my right leg. My love and gratitude are with the fans and the team who make being on Centre Court so meaningful.

    "Feeling the extraordinary warmth and support of the crowd today when I walked on - and off - the court meant the world to me."

    Williams, 39, was forced to retire in the first set against Aliaksandra Sasnovich after slipping in the fifth game.
