Pressed on whether it was her farewell to the All England Club, the 23-time grand slam singles champion added: ‘That’s a question I can’t answer. I don’t know. Who knows? Who knows where I’ll pop up.’

Taking to social media following her championship exit, Serena wrote: ‘That was insane and intense. Not the result I came for, but my goodness I enjoyed that. I hope you did as well. Onward and up. ☺️☺️’
