Mouratoglou previously told the outlet Williams is equally eager to conquer the tennis courts again along with being a new mom. “The goal is to be ready for the Australian Open and then we’ll see,” Mouratoglou. “If she’s ready, she’ll compete. If not, we’ll delay the comeback. I don’t think she should compete if she’s not really ready.”
