Rennae Stubbs was the coach of Serena Williams for the US Open this year but she doesn't think Serena will get the award opting for her compatriot Daria Saville instead.

Many people were shocked to see that Serena Williams was nominated for the comeback player of the year award despite competing in only a few tournaments and having only one truly impressive performance—the US Open. Stubbs accompanied Williams at the US Open as her coach.

She responded to a fan who made his prediction that Donna Vekic should win it while he thinks that Serena will get it. Stubbs replied:

"No, should be Daria.....Love Donna and she had a great come back but Dasha deserves this one."

She then added: "Dasha had a Achilles and a#foot surgeries. She’s has so many surgery’s in the last 3 years and what she didn’t his year was INCREDIBLE!"

Saville is currently out of action after suffering a knee injury in Tokyo during her match agaisnt Osaka.
