‘Why Don’t People Criticize Nascar?’ – Serena Williams’ Husband Alexis Ohanian Puts Across Stats to Question People Who Discredit Women’s Sports

Serena Williams’ husband, Alexis Ohanian, is one of the best businessmen in the US at the moment. Notably, he invested big time in women’s soccer, predominantly the NWSL team Angel City FC, which has now become one of the most popular soccer teams in America.

Often, we saw him posting and promoting women’s games using his social media platform. Recently, he expressed his views regarding women’s sports, as he made a comparison between NASCAR and F1.

Alexis Ohanian becomes vocal about people discrediting women’s sports

Proud investor of the Angel City FC, Ohanian recently came across a study where it showed the investment in women’s soccer is really less comparing it men’s soccer irrespective of the quality. Earlier, Ohanian took to Twitter and shared that study and in the caption, he wrote, “I would love to fund a larger study. Let’s do this: publish all the process + results online. I’m confident that—with a large enough sample—a majority of men will still end up picking the women’s match.”

Notably, Ohanian made his feelings very clear about people discrediting women’s sports for the quality factor. Speaking about it, he said, “Having bias is a part of being human, but I will never understand folks who’d roll over and decide they don’t want to try and be better.”

Moreover, he made a comparison between NASCAR and F1 to prove his point. “Fun exercise: why don’t people criticize NASCAR for being “inferior” to F1 because the cars aren’t as fast, tracks aren’t as complex, etc…,” Ohanian further said.

It is worth noting that Ohanian wanted to change the landscape of women’s sport. Hence, he invested big time in Angel City FC and the club is now worth $100 million, as NWSL is generating huge revenues in recent months.

Serena Williams’ daughter Olympia is also one of the owners of Angel City FC

In 2020, many high-profile names, including Hollywood actress Natalie Portman, founded Angel City FC. At that time, Serena Williams and Alexis Ohanian’s daughter Olympia also became the owner, thanks to her dad. Notably, she became the youngest person to own a sports club.
