Kerber gave birth to her daughter Liana in February 2023. She returned to the tennis stage at the end of December 2023 to win the United Cup team competition together with Alexander Zverev, Laura Siegemund, Tatjana Maria and the rest of the German team.
Two months after her retirement, she appeared as a special guest at the Laver Cup 2024 in Berlin.
‘This time I’m not here as a player, but as a spectator. It’s different, but special.’
With three Grand Slam titles and 29 weeks at number one in the world rankings, Kerber is still considered the most successful German tennis player since Steffi Graf. ‘I always said that I would stay true to tennis,’ she emphasized.
