Serena Williams‘ eldest daughter proved that she’s following in the tennis champ’s footsteps as she showed off her skills on the court Saturday.
Alexis Olympia Ohanian — who goes by her middle name — can be seen playing all kinds of different sports in an array of posts on Instagram.
But the most notable snaps showed the adorable six-year-old little girl with a racquet in hand while skillfully playing on a tennis court.
Dressed in blue shorts, a gray tank top and blue sneakers, Olympia — whose mom recently teased Kim Kardashian — showcased an impressive backhand shot in the photo.
‘Papa is my ballboy,’ quipped Serena in the caption, in reference to Olympia’s dad Alexis Ohanian, who’s an internet entrepreneur and co-founder of the social media site Reddit.
Future champ? Serena Williams’ eldest daughter proved that she’s following in the tennis champ’s footsteps as she showed off her skills on the court Saturday
In the photo Olympia looks like she has already gotten some lessons from her famous mother, who just happens to have won 23 Grand Slam women’s singles titles, which is the most in open era.
The cutie has nice balance as she leans into her shot with her right leg forward and her left leg offering leverage and support.
The post doesn’t reveal where the picture was taken but it’s a safe guess that it would be the Sunshine State since the tennis legend lives in a gated community with her family in Jupiter, Florida.
A quick glance at her Instagram page shows Olympia gravitating to athletics. There are pictures of her on the golf course, playing soccer and other images of her showing off her tennis skills.
Olympia, who only just turned six earlier this month, got bestowed the title of big sister when her parents welcomed Adira River Ohanian to the world on August 22.
The proud dad took to his Instagram page to make the announcement to his 805,000 fans and followers, which included a family photo and a couple of Ohanian introducing the newborn to Olympia.
‘I’m grateful to report our house is teaming with love: a happy & healthy newborn girl and happy & healthy mama. Feeling grateful,’ he shared in the caption. ‘@serenawilliams you’ve now given me another incomparable gift — you’re the GMOAT. Thanks to all the amazing medical staff who took care of my wife & our daughter.’
He added, ‘I’ll never forget the moment I introduced @olympiaohanian to her baby sister.
And then closed the post by writing,’Your peace would have been like a river, your well-being like the waves of the sea.’

Williams announced the birth of their second child with a sweet TikTok video in which she’s holding her newborn with the caption, ‘Welcome my beautiful angel.’
Williams and Ohanian met for the first time in May 2015 over breakfast in Rome. The two were seated next to each other, a coincidence that would ultimately lead to their romance, according to People.
The tennis legend made the first move, asking Ohanian to sit with her and her friends during breakfast — a lovely gesture that was quickly followed up by an invitation to watch her compete in the 2015 French Open.
Ultimately, the lovebirds got engaged in 2016, and then by the end of the following year they would celebrate Olympia’s arrival to Planet Earth and get married.
