Serena Williams posts pictures of herself vacationing with family in the Bahamas, pranks sister Isha Price
Serena Williams recently took to Instagram to post pictures of herself on vacation with her family in the Bahamas. The 40-year-old, who hasn't played a match since sustaining a hamstring injury at Wimbledon this year, had been using her time off court to promote her father's biopic, 'King Richard', which was released in theaters on November 19.
During her tropical getaway in the Bahamas, Serena Williams went snorkeling with her family. In one of the videos, she can be seen swimming underwater in the midst of fascinating marine life.
Williams posted a picture of herself stretching and jokingly claimed that "underwater training" is the reason she is able to retrieve most of the balls on court.
"When you ask how did I reach that ball… it’s underwater training :)", read the caption of Serena Williams' post.
The 23-time Grand Slam champion even pulled off a prank on older sister Isha Price on a yacht. Price, who was looking to step down from the higher platform she was standing on, was lent a hand by Serena Williams. As Price reached out to grasp Williams' hand, the latter drew it back in style, leaving her sister puzzled.
"Never underestimate the power of a little sister (me) aka brat 🤪 @ladyisha01", Williams posted.
While on vacation, Serena Williams also celebrated her fourth wedding anniversary with Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian. Ohanian posted a picture with Williams, saying building a family with her was the "best work" he has ever done.
"4 years! Many more date nights to come. It takes work, but building this family with you is the best work I've ever done @serenawilliams", Ohanian wrote on Instagram.

Serena's sister Venus Williams revealed that she never planned for such a film to come to life. She added that she was "proud" of the way her family's stories were told in the biopic.
"It's beautiful I was never planning this moment and then here it is," Venus said. "And then the way this story is told is also probably the best way it could be told. How a family actually succeeded so that's the story of it all. I'm so proud it's being told this way because it's the right way."
