Their weekend outing once again highlighted Ohanian’s dedication to making time for Olympia, whether through sports, food, or simply having fun together. Golf isn’t just a casual hobby for Olympia—it’s becoming a family tradition. Ohanian has even referred to himself as a “daddy caddy” and has taken his daughter golfing multiple times.
For her last birthday, Olympia even played with golf clubs gifted by none other than the legendary golf player Tiger Woods. The connection to the sport doesn’t end there. Ohanian, alongside Serena Williams and Venus Williams, co-owns the Los Angeles Golf Club (LAGC), one of the six founding teams in TGL, the high-tech golf league backed by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy.
He once explained his investment, saying, “To wit, my wife Serena Williams and I have enjoyed as Olympia’s taken a liking to golf. This is another piece of the legacy I’m building for my family and I hope this team can become a part of many families’ lives, too.”
The father-daughter duo often connect on sports. And why wouldn’t they when their house has one of the most legendary tennis player: Serena Williams. Find out their ventures!

Alexis Ohanian’s commitment to women’s sports goes far beyond just watching games. The 41-year-old made headlines by investing in Angel City FC, a women’s soccer team in the NWSL. His decision was fueled by Olympia’s enthusiasm during the 2019 Women’s FIFA World Cup.

Seeing his daughter cheer for the players convinced him that women’s sports deserved more attention and investment. That realization has since led to his involvement in multiple sports ventures. It’s not just professional sports that Ohanian is backing—he’s also making an impact at the college level.
On January 30th, Ohanian and Olympia were spotted at the Watsco Center, cheering for the Virginia Cavaliers women’s basketball team. This wasn’t just a casual visit.
In December 2024, the University of Virginia alumnus made history by donating $776,000 to the Cavaliers’ women’s basketball program—the largest donation in the team’s history. According to Sportico, it was also the biggest contribution ever made to the program. His investment in the sport is personal.
