Serena Williams' iconic return to competition will include an interesting stop this summer.
Per Skyler Caruso of People, Williams will make her Fanatics Fest debut during the third annual event at the Jacob Javits Center in New York City from July 16-19. The 23-time Grand Slam champion will participate in the Fanatics Games against fellow star athletes Tom Brady, Novak Djokovic, John Cena, Rob Gronkowski, Cam Skattebo, Jordan Chiles and Jaxson Dart, among others.
"We've got 50 of the greatest athletes, celebrities and artists competing against 50 average Joe fans," Fanatics founder and CEO Michael Rubin tells PEOPLE exclusively ahead of the event. "Brady, Williams, Djokovic, that's the quality of people we have competing in these games."

Rubin added that the winner of the Fanatics Games gets $2 million cash, second place gets a Ferrari, and third place gets a rare Lionel Messi trading card valued at $250,000.
Williams returned to tennis for the first time in four years and will play at Wimbledon later this summer alongside her sister Venus, but she will be testing her skills in other areas.
Caruso explained that the Fanatics Games will pit the athletes against the fans "in an array of athletic challenges, including NFL Clutch Kick, NBA Game Winning Shot, WWE Superstar Entrance, UFC Striking, MLB Pitching, NHL Shoot & Score, Dick's Sporting Goods Putting and FIFA Ultimate Goal."
It's clear that Williams is excited about the chance to compete again, and it will be fun to see what else she has in store during her return.
