Keys recently said she has a love/hate relationship with grass. She loves it but believes the surface doesnât always love her back. 4 of her 11 career WTA titles are on grass.
Keys has been able to get to the latter stages of each Grand Slam at some point in her career, but Wimbledon is the least fruitful by her high standards with two quarterfinal finishes in 2015 and 2023.
