Serena Williams’ Husband Alexis Ohanian Reveals Sweet Gesture To Daughter Olympia With Connection To Her Australian Open Lore

Serena Williams’ husband, Alexis Ohanian, shared a touching tribute to their daughter Olympia, tying it to one of the most memorable moments in the tennis star’s career. During the 2017 Australian Open, Williams won her sixth singles Grand Slam title in a dominant 6–4, 6–4 victory over her sister Venus in the final, a triumph made even more special as she was eight to nine weeks pregnant at the time.

Nine years later, Ohanian honored that historic achievement by gifting Olympia authentic merchandise from the tournament, celebrating the bond between mother and daughter during a pivotal chapter in Williams’ life and career.

Meanwhile, Williams marked another milestone in 2026 with the release of a signature Barbie doll, designed to reflect her iconic 2005 Australian Open win—the seventh of her 23 Grand Slam singles titles. The doll features her streetwear-inspired Nike tennis kit from that tournament, while Williams herself emphasized its significance as a symbol of breaking barriers for young girls.

Though she returned to professional competition at age 44, a knee injury forced her withdrawal from Wimbledon and the U.S. Open this year, where she and Venus were eliminated in the first round of doubles play by Maya Joint and Chan Hao-ching.
