Injured five-times champion Serena Williams has all but confirmed her participation in the Australian Open.
Williams was forced to withdraw from the Brisbane International after spraining her ankle during her second-round win over Serbian Bojana Jovanovski on Wednesday.
But the 13-times major winner on Friday indicated her recovery was coming along well ahead of the Open at Melbourne Park starting in nine days.
“I am doing a lot better,” Williams tweeted her 2,384,071 followers.
