Mercedes’ Lewis Hamilton and tennis legend, Serena Williams, have joined forces to invest in the sporting field yet again. Even though their previous attempt at bidding for Chelsea FC fell through, the dynamic duo is now said to have ventured into a new chapter with golf legend, Tiger Woods, who is in partnership with a fellow golfer, Rory McIlroy.

The seven-time champ, Lewis Hamilton, and arguably, the greatest tennis player of all time, Serena Williams, had previously attempted to purchase the English Premier League soccer club, Chelsea FC. The two had reportedly bid a whopping £10 million each toward the purchase. However, the deal didn’t go as planned.

The Chelsea Football Club announced that they had agreed to go forth with a deal with the LA Dodgers baseball team co-owner, Todd Boehly, for the final amount of £4.25 billion.

However, this defeat did not put a stop to the two legends in question. The duo is now said to be investors in a big virtual professional golf project, ‘TMRW Sports‘ which is an initiation by the one and only, Tiger Woods. The project, however, is still in its early stages. Therefore, not a lot has been revealed so far.

Aside from Serena Williams and Lewis Hamilton, big names involved in the project are Justin Timberlake, Liverpool FC owner- John Henry, Buffalo Bills’ quarterback, Josh Allen, Andy Murray, Steph Curry and Gareth Bale.

Lewis Hamilton is not the only F1 man to be part of the investors circle in this futuristic golf project. McLaren’s Lando Norris, Williams’ Alex Albon and Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz are also said to be a part of the investment pool.

The project’s first virtual golf tour is set to be scheduled for the year 2024. The CEO of the company, Mike McCarley, shared insights on the project in a recent interview.

He said, “You know, a lot of these athletes have really embraced technology, the way in which they train and prepare and that sort of thing. There was a consensus around a clear vision for how technology can really help make sports more accessible and culturally relevant to new groups of fans and I think in particular kids and families.”

Hamilton has shown his admiration for the Williams sisters time and again over the years. The Briton has been deeply touched by the impact the sisters have made in tennis. Through their incredible achievements on the WTA Tour, they have inspired millions around the world to follow their own dreams.

Lewis once took to his Instagram to thank the William sisters. He wrote, “Taking a moment before the race today to show my appreciation and gratitude to the greatest of all time, @serenawilliams.” 

“We will never see another Serena. She’s one of a kind. She came through like a wrecking ball and has been so spectacular to witness. She has such fierceness, power, and strength in both body and mind. To be so bold, Black, brave and, above all, a kind and caring human being is beautiful.”

He shared how he grew up watching the Williams sisters on TV, ‘dominating’ the field. He said, “They made me believe that superheroes are real, and they can look (like) me and my family.”

As a fan boy, Hamilton claimed that he couldn’t believe that he’d someday meet his heroes. He didn’t think that it would be possible, and stated that he was never alone in his journey because he had them to look up to. He also admitted that he is a better competitor because of them, since they showed him that giving up was never an option.

“You inspire me every day and just know you always have a brother in me. Serena, I’m wishing you all the happiness in what’s next for you. You truly deserve it,” he said, in conclusion.
