Lleyton Hewitt is coming out of retirement, again!
The Australia ace, who had announced his retirement after the Australian Open earlier this year but returned for the subsequent Davis Cup, has accepted a wildcard entry into the Wimbledon doubles draw, where he will be seen in action alongside countryman Jordan Thompson.
The 34-year-old Hewitt has special memories from Wimbledon, having won his second Grand Slam title here back in 2002, a year before he pulled off his maiden major at the US Open.
Hewitt is also branded as a decent doubles player after he joined forces with Max Mirnyi of Belarus to clinch his first and only Grand Slam doubles glory at the US Open in 2000.
The Wimbledon 2016 is scheduled to be held from June 27 to July 10 at the renowned All England Club.
