Organisers said last week the 44-year-old had been invited but the seven-time Grand Slam singles champion has not taken it up. “Our team has been informed that Venus is not accepting the wildcard this year,” the event posted on X in a statement attributed to tournament director Tommy Haas. “We wish Venus all the best and hope to see her back in Indian Wells in the future.” Williams has dropped to 974th in the world and has not played a WTA Tour-level match since losing in the first round of the Miami Open last March. She earlier told the TennisWeekly podcast she would not be making her return at the Indian Wells tournament, which runs from 2-16 March. “I’m not playing – I’m going to be overseas. I’m not going to be here,” she said.
