Serena Williams, known for her countless fans and tennis achievements, showcased her biggest supporter on Monday through a heartfelt Instagram post. The tennis icon shared a photo with her nearly two-year-old daughter, Alexis, as they both raised their arms proudly in matching jumpers adorned with Serena’s ‘S’ logo. Serena, a 37-year-old legend with 23 grand slam singles titles, posted the snapshot ahead of her Wimbledon match, following her sister Venus’ unfortunate defeat.
In the photo, Serena and Alexis stood side by side, with Serena flexing her muscles while Alexis mimicked the gesture with her tiny fists. Serena captioned the photo with anticipation for her upcoming match: “Let the games begin!”
The white jumpers, featuring the classic Wimbledon colors of green and purple, are from Serena’s own clothing line, the London Sweater, which she launched last year to empower womеn through fashion that combines creativity and functionality. Speaking about her brand, Serena emphasized empowering womеn to express their individuality and confidence.
Since becoming a mother, Serena frequently includes Alexis on her Instagram, where Alexis also has her own profile with a substantial following. Serena, happily married to Alexis Ohanian Sr., has spoken openly about the challenges she faced during childbirth in 2017 and the joy of achieving her goals both on and off the tennis court.
Serena Williams has been a dominant force in tennis since achieving the number one ranking in singles in 2002, a title she has held multiple times. Her sister Venus faced a tough start at Wimbledon this year, with 15-year-old Cori Gauff defeating her in a surprising upset. Gauff, emotional after her victory, shared a touching moment with Venus at the net, expressing her admiration and gratitude for her inspiration and support.
