Serena Williams has played a pivotal role to bring equality to women’s sports. She, along with her elder sister, Venus Williams, batted for equal prize money regardless of gender. They were at the forefront of this fight and eventually, their efforts bore fruits as tournaments gradually started handing out equal prize money to men and women tennis players.

Serena’s 40-year-old husband, Alexis Ohanian has largely been inspired by his wife. He has been a vocal supporter of women’s sports. His daughter, Olympia also influenced him while she was wholeheartedly supporting USWNT during the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup. A few months later, Alexis invested a massive sum of $100 Million into a new National Women’s Soccer League’s franchise, Angel City FC. Recently, he reminisced about his prediction from 2019.
