Serena Williams enjoyed from a distance as Alexis Ohanian jumped off the dive board
Burying the disappointment from Paris which saw the 23-time Grand Slam champion suffer yet another heartbreak at a Major, Serena and family are currently holidaying at a scenic locale by the sea.
The first clip shows Ohanian walking warily towards the edge of the diving board even as he is heard saying, ?Okay, help me be brave. Olympia, help me be brave.?
To that, the three-year-old could be heard screaming, ?You could do it, Papa.?
Ohanian then edges closer to the tip of the diving board and takes a leap.

The second clip shows Serena?s daughter cuddling her father by a swimming pool before her father drags her into the water.
In both the clips, Serena is a sideshow but enjoying nonetheless from a distance.
The clips have been tagged with a message from the little one saying, ?I wanted to jump off the diving board so badly, so Papa went for me. I made sure he had SPF 5000 sunscreen.?
To the post, Ohanian replied saying his daughter wanted to jump off the dive board but is still too small to do it.
?Olympia *desperately* wanted to jump off the diving board, but she?s only 3, so I let her live vicariously thru,? her father wrote.
Serena is holidaying after a disappointing French Open campaign
The downtime will help Serena recover from the disappointment of her fourth-round loss at Roland-Garros to Elena Rybakina of Kazakhstan.
The French Open exit followed her crushing semi-final loss to eventual champion Naomi Osaka at this year?s Australian Open.
