The sporting dimension of Serena Williams and Alexis Ohanian’s household is about to change. Although the “Queen of the Court” is a tennis legend, their 6-year-old daughter is still trying out different sports. Unfortunately, at the same time, she is also keeping her distance from tennis, which would come as a disappointment to her mother. But now, her devoted father has intervened to rescue the day by taking on a new role for his daughter, in an effort to further enhance his daughter’s love for tennis.

Although he harbors a deep love for soccer, the 40-year-old American entrepreneur seems to have changed his daughter’s take on tennis in a positive manner. Recently, the former tennis legend’s daughter stunned everyone as she took on a sport she hadn’t fancied for a long time.

Serena Williams’ daughter finally follows in her mother’s footsteps

While the former WTA world number one is quite open about her eldest daughter’s sporting preferences, now the doting father, Ohanian, is there to change that reality. Recently, there was a picture posted on the 6-year-old’s Instagram account in which she was seen playing tennis.

Along with a proper tennis practice session picture, the caption reads, “Papa is my ballboy.” 

The daughter of the 41-year-old American tennis legend was seen in that photograph hitting some balls on the tennis court while her father assisted her in the session. It won’t be wrong to say that ball boy Papa might have changed his daughter’s mind about tennis.

Nevertheless, back when Serena Williams’ first daughter was quite young, there were a lot of expectations. Particularly, about how she could take up tennis in the future. But earlier this year, the 23-time Grand Slam champ made a huge disclosure regarding her daughter’s true feelings towards tennis.

When Williams shared her disappointed take on her daughter’s tennis interest 

When the former tennis legend appeared on CBS News with Norah O’Donnell, she revealed how her daughter doesn’t like to play tennis. Along with that, she expressed her disappointment in the fact that even after being good at this sport, she is not much into tennis.

In addition, she also said a solution is how they are trying to figure out a way to get her to play a little and fall in love with the sport. But now, it feels like Papa Ohanian might have found a way to make their daughter play tennis often so that she can understand the sport better.
