Serena Williams reveals 'advice' from daughter Olympia ahead of US Open during her farewell swing
Serena Williams recently opened up about an adorable moment with her daughter Olympia after her early loss at the 2022 Cincinnati Open. Williams lost in the first round in Cincinnati to Emma Raducanu before receiving some words of encouragement from her five-year-old. Olympia urged her mother to keep going and 'do what she feels', making Williams quite emotional.
"Apparently, she was saying like, 'Go, Momma, I'm so proud of you,' and I was like, 'What?'. So then she comes back after I had lost in Cincinnati, she came back and she's like, 'It's okay, Momma, you just have to do what you feel,' and I literally wanted to cry. It was like, 'Do what you feel. Do what your heart tells you.' It was the sweetest thing ever," Serena Williams said during her recent appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show.
The 2022 US Open was Williams' final career tournament and it turned out to be an emotional farewell for the 23-time Grand Slam singles champion, who was accompanied by her family members and close ones in all three matches she played at the Major. She bowed out of the tournament with a loss to Ajla Tomljanovic in the third round.
