The legendary Serena Williams hasn’t stopped making the news even after retiring. But after withdrawing from professional tennis, she has the opportunity to create a legacy in the sport. Her daughter, Olympia Ohanian, has developed an interest in her mother’s game. Recently, Alexis Ohanian, Williams’ husband, shared a picture of Olympia practicing her hardest on the court. The picture found immense attention, and fans are appreciating the 6-year-old already!

The daughter of Williams and Ohanian is now working hard to play the racket sport. This is quite the changed stance. Earlier, Olympia did not have much of an interest in playing tennis, as her mother confessed. But young girl’s efforts now have captured fans and followers of the sport all over.

Olympia Ohanian lauded for following in Serena Williams’ footsteps 

Albeit not having much interest in tennis earlier, Olympia seems to be working hard at it now. Perhaps gaining inspiration from her mother, Serena Williams, Alexis Ohanian Jr. has been putting herself to the grind. Recently, a picture was shared on her Instagram account, which showed her in form for hitting a backhand with the caption, “Papa is my ballboy.”

Followers of the sport were quite impressed as they lauded the young girl’s dedication and focus.
