Former top-ranked German player Angelique Kerber revealed her desire to come back on the court while eyeing the Olympics before she makes a possible retirement. She wants to participate in the 2023 Olympics alongside Alexander Zverev and hopefully get a chance to win a medal for her country.

For the uninitiated, the former World No. 1 and 3-time Grand Slam title champion has been out of tennis since the summer of 2022 due to her pregnancy and has since taken her time to get back to action.

She reckons that she is fit to play but is still unsure about her return. However, the tennis professional recently revealed her desire to be a flagbearer for her country in Paris and win a few medals like that.

It would be indescribable for any athlete to walk in with the German flag, and it's also a dream of mine. 
 Said the former world number 1 in a recent interview via the Australian Press. 

At the age of 35, Kerber looks to follow in the footsteps of the legendary Serena Williams and possibly win a Grand Slam at this age like the American once did after giving birth to Olympia. As of now, the former World No. 1 is also on the list of players who are looking to make a comeback in 2024, and fans will be eager to witness her return after a couple of years.
