WIMBLEDON , ENGLAND : Serena Williams said she will not go to the Tokyo Olympics, but did not want to say why during her pre-Wimbledon video conference with reporters Sunday.

Before that, they had been 15-0 as an Olympic doubles team. Asked what it will be like to sit out the Summer Games, Williams replied: “I have not thought about it. Roger Federer said Saturday he hasn't decided whether to participate in the Tokyo Games and will figure that out after he sees how things go at Wimbledon.
