By now you guys have heard the scary news about Serena Williams.
In the last week or so she been treated for a blood clot in her lung.
Followed by a hematoma.
This is bad news for Serena fans as she will likely be sidelined a lot longer.
Serena has not played a tour match since winning Wimbledon last June.
After which she stepped on a piece of glass that mucked up her foot.
Now this latest health drama.
As a result of Serena's inactivity she has dropped to #11 in the rankings.
And that is on the strength of only 4 tournaments in May & June last year:
A Sf at Rome, R16 at Madrid, Qf at Roland Garros & the Wimbledon win.
Sadly, it's hard to see that she'll be able to bounce back very soon.
Apparently Serena will be on a blood thinner medication for a few months.
YIKES.
Get well soon Serena. We continue to miss you.
