Is Olympia Ohanian the next big thing in sports, following in her mom Serena Williams' footsteps?

First, it was soccer, then tennis, followed by ballet, and now, it’s golf! Olympia Ohanian’s passions are ever-evolving, but her parents, Serena Williams and Alexis Ohanian, couldn’t be prouder. On September 23, Alexis was seen cheering on his daughter as she made her first bogey on the golf course, fully immersed in their father-daughter bonding.

Moreover, adding more to his “DaddyCaddy” series, he posed near a goalpost under a sunny, bright sky, looking happy and proud. Meanwhile, dressed in a high-neck sleeveless pink top and a white miniskirt, Williams’ baby girl looked absolutely adorable as the father-daughter duo shared a moment. Along with that, he wrote, “She got a bogey! #DaddyCaddy.” A bogey in golf occurs when a golfer completes a hole one stroke over par. Although it’s not a perfect score, it’s often seen as a sign of progress for younger players.

Reflecting on a similar moment, when Olympia turned seven on September 1, her proud father couldn’t help but get a bit emotional, thinking about how quickly his little girl was growing up. To mark the special day, he shared a heartwarming golf memory from their past adventures together on Instagram, where Olympia held a golf club in style.

In addition, he wrote, “Every morning with her is precious. Especially Sundays. This Daddy Caddy needs to get her some new clubs soon cuz she’s growing out of the gift from Uncle Tiger. Can’t wait to take her to her first @tglgolf match this January.”

In case you didn’t know, back in July 2020, Olympia Ohanian made history by becoming the youngest co-owner in professional sports when her parents purchased a stake in Angel City Football Club. Fast forward three years and Olympia expanded her impressive portfolio by adding the Los Angeles Golf Club to her holdings, as Ohanian and the Williams sisters secured the franchise for TGL, Tiger Woods’ innovative golf league.

More recently, Ohanian joked about a new parenting challenge: trying to keep up with his daughter’s golfing prowess.
