Serena Williams recently told The New York Times that she has been having a hard time trying to ‘push’ her daughters like she was pushed by her father Richard. She joked that she just wanted them to relax.
“I always look at my dad, and I think, How were you able to do that? Because I’m like, Oh, they’re so cute. I just want them to relax and I don’t want to over-push them… I’m having a hard time connecting to that extra push, and that’s something I’ve been trying to figure out myself, how to give that extra motivation to my daughters,” she said.
The American also said her elder daughter Olympia was very athletic and that she got high praise from Venus Williams.
“The 8-month-old is so tiny, but Olympia is such a bright light, and she’s so athletic, to the point where it’s just not even humanly possible. Even Venus, she was like, “That kid has more talent than you and I combined,” and she’s not lying,” Serena said.
Serena Williams retired from tennis after the 2022 US Open, amassing 23 Grand Slam titles.
