For tennis fans in Terrell Hills , the news of Serena Williams' withdrawal from her doubles match at Wimbledon is a disappointment, but her hint at a potential return to competition soon is a tantalizing prospect. With the U.S. Open approaching, San Antonio area residents may be wondering if they'll have the chance to see Serena in action locally.
