It was great to get to watch Serena Williams back on centre court at Wimbledon. Some of her serves and returns had the power and placement that we have been mesmerized by for decades. At the same time when quick movements across the court were needed, it was clear that the spirit was willing though the body was not. Now we hear that she also tweaked her knee while playing.

I think Virginia Woolf perfectly captured what all of us feel as we age. How we can feel so young; and at the same time, unspeakably aged. We truly wish Serena and Venus the best as they try to defeat mother time with their doubles comeback later this week.
