Serena Williams has been working hard in the gym over the last 12 months as she looks to keep herself in top physical shape despite retiring from tennis three years ago
Serena Williams, the tennis icon with 23 Grand Slam titles under her belt, has been flaunting her post-retirement fitness regime on Instagram.
The sporting legend, who hung up her racket three years ago after a gruelling match against Ajla Tomljanovic at the US Open, has been keeping fans updated with her life beyond the court.
After waving an emotional goodbye to her supporters at Flushing Meadows, Serena welcomed her second child in August 2023 and has since been dedicated to maintaining her athletic physique.
Her recent Instagram snaps showcase her toned body and sculpted abs, accompanied by the caption: “Working out and working on my angles.”
Known for her powerful build and dominance on the court, Williams appears to have slimmed down since her playing days, as evidenced by a video she posted in January last year, where she expressed her commitment to shedding weight.
“Alright, I’m getting back into the swing of things,” she declared in the clip.
“This is not my usual weight, but it’ll do until I get back to where I need to be.”
Meanwhile, Venus Williams, Serena’s elder sister, is gearing up for a comeback at the DC Open in Washington with a wildcard entry, marking her first WTA Tour match since March 2024, reports the Express.
“There’s something truly special about DC, the energy, the fans, the history,” Venus Williams gushed as her participation was confirmed.
“This city has always shown me so much love, and I can’t wait to compete there again.”
Despite being a seven-time Grand Slam champion, Venus Williams notably sat out all four majors last year – a first since she turned pro in 1997.
