The famous tennis player became a mother for the first time 1September. The 36-year-old athlete gave birth to a daughter, whom she named Alexis Olympia. Only three weeks have passed since the birth, and Serena is already making ambitious plans: she announced her intention to compete in the Australian Open, a championship that will be held in January next year. There are only 107 days left until it, meaning Serena has only four months to recover. But it looks like she can: the tennis player trained almost throughout her entire pregnancy and has remained in excellent shape. Judging by the photo she published in a bodysuit, Serena's figure has not changed at all - amazing. In fairness, it should be noted that she has never been a reed. But finding the strength to not stop training, no matter what, is cool, no doubt about it.

- and in the third month Photo:@serenawilliamsBy the way, although Serena claims that she has never had a complex about her figure, comments about it still hurt her. This is clear from the letter she wrote to her mother. It is very personal and very touching. We quote: “Dear Mom. You are one of the strongest women I know. I look at my daughter (oh my God, I have a daughter!) and she has my arms and legs. My strong, muscular, powerful, sensational arms and body. I can’t imagine how I would feel if she had to go through the same thing that I have had to go through from the time I was 15 until now. They called me a man because I looked too strong. They said I was doping (no, I have always been too principled to be dishonest for an advantage). They said I shouldn't compete against women, that I should compete against men because I look stronger than other women. No, I just work hard, I was born with this fighter's body and I'm proud of it."

And yet we are women and proud of it!” Serena wrote. The champion admitted that her mother became a role model for her: looking at her mother, it was much easier for her to cope with all the challenges of fate, which have now turned into her victories. “I hope to teach Alexis Olympia to be as strong as you. I love you very much,” Serena finished her message.
