Tennis superstar Serena Williams was playing at the Italian Open in Rome but suffered a loss in the opening round match. She lost to Argentina’s Nadia Podoroska in straight sets. It was the 1000th match of her career and unfortunately, it ended in disappointment.

However, she decided to make the most of her time in the Italian capital as she has her family accompanying her. Serena was recently seen enjoying an ice cream along with her daughter Olympia. Most European cities are known for their desserts and Rome is amongst these as well.

Serena Williams and Olympia’s dressing was spot on during their outing in Rome

During their outing, Serena was seen wearing a Nike tracksuit with a Gucci bag hanging on her waist. On the other hand, Olympia sported a pink tracksuit that had polka dots. This was paired with a set of sleek sneakers from Moschino. 

In 2021, Williams began her season in Australia. She played the exhibition event in Adelaide called ‘A Day at the Drive’. Following that, she traveled to Melbourne to compete in the Yarra Valley Classic. Unfortunately, she had to pull out before her semifinal match due to a shoulder niggle.
