Serena's sickly selfie: Tennis ace posts picture of herself curled up under a blanket after dropping out of Wimbledon with virus


·  Women's world number one posted photo showing her sleeping on sofa
·  Yesterday she was forced to pull out of Wimbledon due to illness
·  32-year-old broke down on court and required emergency medical checks
·  She appeared tearful as she and her sister walked off court hand-in-hand


Tennis star Serena Williams has posted a photograph of herself curled up under a blanket after being forced to drop out of Wimbledon with a 'virus illness'.
The tournament was host to dramatic scenes yesterday as the 32-year-old broke down on court and was forced to withdraw in the middle of her doubles match alongside sister Venus.
After emergency court-side medical checks delayed the match by more than 10 minutes, Miss Williams was given the go-ahead to play, but was forced to stop a short time later after serving four consecutive double faults.


Thankfully the women's world number one appears to taking things much easier today, posting a photograph on both Twitter and Instagram showing her sleeping on a sofa under a pink blanket.
