"I've talked about this before with Kim, who won the US Open twice as a mum and Azarenka" - Kerber receives advice on return after motherhood

Angelique Kerber will become a mother and like many before her, she wants to continue playing tennis after giving birth.

The German announced her pregnancy before the US Open writing that it would not be fair to play two-on-one. She is set to give birth in the Spring of next year and while she won't return immediately she spoke a couple of times about wanting to play on. Speaking in a recent interview, Kerber detailed how she sees things unfolding:

"I think I'll be back at the end of the year. So rather New York than Wimbledon, but if it's already in Wimbledon, then gladly there."

She added:

"I've talked about this before with Kim, who won the US Open twice as a mum, and also with Victoria Azarenka. The topic just interested me, even though I wasn't pregnant."

Even though she's not playing tennis right now she's is busy with other projects as well and one of those projects is her autobiography set to come out in November:

"There are various projects that are important for me. One is my autobiography that is set to be published in November. I’ve invested a lot of time in it and have thought a lot about what I want to let the people in on, which messages I want to give young players starting out in the game."
