Serena Williams is making her highly anticipated return to the court at this summer's Wimbledon, which will be her first event in a year. 

Wimbledon tweeted Tuesday that the seven-time champ has been granted a wildcard slot for the tournament. 

Williams will be making her 21st appearance at the All-England Club. 

"The stage awaits," Wimbledon tweeted. 

Williams appeared to hint at her appearance earlier Tuesday in an Instagram post of her white tennis sneakers.
