What could be Serena Williams’ spirit animal? What kind of animal does the American tennis legend resemble? Someone near and dear to the 23-time Grand Slam champion has got the answer to such questions. Recently, the elder Williams sister, Venus, revealed the conversation that astonished her over what her dear sister picked as her spirit animal. Let’s see what is it. 

Spirit animals are human-animal depictions like what kind of animal you are like in terms of personality. Seeing the 23-time Grand Slam champion’s fearless and competitive nature, her fans would confidently state that her choice would certainly be a ferocious one. They wouldn’t be wrong. 

Venus Williams’ striking reaction over Serena’s spirit animal revelation

Recently, Venus released a video on her YouTube channel, in which she talked about what inspired her as a tennis player. Not only that, in the same conversation, she also revealed that animals like tigers and lions quite inspired her. And suddenly, while talking about animals, she recalled a conversation she had with Serena about her spirit animal. From her reaction in the video, we can say she was pleasantly surprised.

She said, “What kind of animal we were?…She told me that she was a liger.

The spirit animal, Liger, results from interbreeding between a lion and a tiger, mostly in captivity. The animal towers above both lions and tigers, and certainly is the heaviest cat species on the planet. And seeing the former world number one choose this magnificent beast to represent herself blew her sister’s mind.

However, Serena’s answer isn’t a surprise as the former world number one’s liger-like personality is definitely something she got from her father. A year ago, Will Smith, who played the reel King Richard in the movie, compared Richards’ personality to a lion.

Well, now it’s clear why Serena picked liger as her spirit animal.
