Serena Williams is training up the next great tennis star.
Indeed, the 23-time Grand Slam champion shared a rare peek at her and husband Alexis Ohanian’s 2-year-old daughter Adira during a hitting session on a tennis court.
In pictures shared to Instagram Nov. 24, Serena volleyed a ball to the toddler, who held her own racket and swung. In one snap, Adira stood next to her mom while the retired athlete talked her daughter through the motions.
Serena—also mom to daughter Olympia, 8, with the Reddit founder—commemorated the touching memory by writing in the caption, “This is me sharing my passion for tennis with my youngest daughter.”
In addition to sharing her and sister Venus Williams’ favorite sport with Adira, Serena—who is an owner of the Los Angeles Golf Club with Alexis—is also getting her into golf, as seen in an August Instagram post of the 2-year-old swinging a golf club on the family’s home putting green.
