Post-retirement sounds fun, but, nothing can quite catch up to Serena Williams’s vibe. Not only that, but her husband Alexis Ohanian adds to the excitement by planning cute outings with their two daughters, Olympia and Adira. However, not all adventures go according to plan. In this case, it’s a prominent British racer who might be saddened by Ohanian’s abrupt change in plans.

Immense love for their daughters and engagement in women’s empowerment, in general, has elicited entrepreneur Ohanian to invest a substantial amount in women’s sports. Not only that, but the American businessman has been involved in several high-end sports projects. Just recently, Ohanian and his daughter Olympia attended the inaugural Athlos event in New York in late September, wherein women athletes made maiden appearances. The project focuses on promoting women athletes and providing them with a noteworthy platform, other than the Olympics.

Moreover, the Reddit co-founder also posted a snap where Olympia wore a Tiffany and Co. tiara-inspired silver crown. While the adorable family seldom misses making good memories, Ohanian, unfortunately, had to skip an important event that might upset Mercedes Petronas’ Lewis Hamilton.

Ohanian’s hopes to attend the Las Vegas Grand Prix came down crashing as he had to attend the production of ‘The Nutcracker’ with his daughter Olympia in Florida, the dates for which clashed with the F1 championship. Seemingly upset with the circumstances, the 41-year-old took to his official X handle and cleared his reservations, tagging Lewis Hamilton as well.

Ohanian wrote, “Everyone texting me this weekend like “hey you’re in Vegas for @F1 right?” And I’m like “nahhh I’m in a Florida production of The Nutcracker with THE @OlympiaOhanian!!” In the same thread, he added, You know I’d be there for @LewisHamilton any other weekend tho!!” For those unaware, Briton Hamilton finished second at the Las Vegas GP as countryman George Russell clinched the title.

Speaking of the Ohanian family’s interests in sports, it’ll be quite natural for fans to think that Serena’s children will follow in her footsteps and play tennis, but her daughter seems to be interested in other sports.

What’s your perspective on:

Did Alexis Ohanian make the right call skipping the Grand Prix for 'The Nutcracker'?

Have an interesting take?

Serena Williams might not be an active player on the tour but that doesn’t mean she has no aspirations for her daughters, especially her elder 7-year-old daughter Olympia Ohanian. However, it’s hard for her to guide Olympia when she has explicitly expressed having no interest in tennis. Subsequently, the youngster tried her hand at different sports and, by the looks of it, she has now landed in a sport that piques her interest.

Ohanian often takes her daughters on golfing dates, wherein the duo practice and polish their skills in the sport together. On one such occasion, Ohanian revealed that Olympia managed to strip him of some Robux – a fictional currency used in the game Roblux – after losing a golf session to her. “Putting pool with Jr. this morning. She won a few robux off me,” Ohanian wrote on X.

Only time will tell which sport drives a feisty motivation inside Olympia. For now, the family of four is focused on creating adorable memories, all the while exploring new things and providing the fans with exciting updates as well.
