Venus Williams to face Camila Giorgi in Rothesay Classic R1

Venus Williams is back in action on the grass courts of Birmingham, where she will face Camila Giorgi in the opening round of the 2023 Rothesay Classic on Monday, June 19.

The American, who has won five Wimbledon titles in her illustrious career, will be looking to find her form and rhythm ahead of the grass-court Major.

Williams, who is currently ranked No. 696 in the world, has played only three matches so far this year. She suffered an injury during her second-round exit at the ASB Classic in January, forcing her to withdraw from the Australian Open. The 43-year-old made her comeback to the tour last week at the Libema Open in the Netherlands, where she lost a three-setter to 17-year-old Celine Naef.

Giorgi, on the other hand, has had a decent season so far, with a title win at the Merida Open Akron and a third-round finish at both the Australian Open and the Italian Open.

This will be the third meeting between Williams and Giorgi, with the former leading 2-0 head-to-head. They last played at the 2018 US Open, where Williams won in straight sets. However, both of their previous encounters were on hardcourts while this will be their first clash on grass.
