Serena return

Tennis: Serena Williams has been drawn to play doubles in a potentially decisive fifth rubber in this week’s Fed Cup first round tie against the Netherlands in what will be her first competitive match in over a year. The doubles rubber, which is scheduled for tomorrow on an indoor hard court in Asheville, North Carolina, will be played even if one side clinches the best-offive match series through the opening four singles matches. Serena’s sister Venus Williams and CoCo Vandeweghe are set to contest the singles rubbers for the US.
