Earlier this year, Serena Williams’ husband, Alexis Ohanian, sent shockwaves across the sporting world with a massive announcement. The Reddit co-founder revealed that his five-year-old daughter is a co-owner beside him in the Los Angeles Golf Club. The club is the 1st team in the new virtual golf club, backed by legends Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy. With this, Olympia became the youngest owner in professional sports. Additionally, she also became the youngest 2-team owner in professional sports.

Like father, like daughter, they say. Going by that, Olympia is destined to etch her name in history books, following in her father’s footsteps. Recently, the Reddit co-founder was full of praise for the Tiger Woods-backed league.

What did Serena Williams’ husband say?

The 40-year-old is active on social media and often shares discussions on a variety of subjects. On this occasion, he took to his official Instagram handle and praised Tisha Alyn, a social media influencer promoting golf. In the process, he also revealed the reason he chose to invest in golf, saying, “@tishaalyn – That sound is what got me hooked. @wearelagc.”

The Los Angeles Golf Club is the first team in a league backed by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy. It is a virtual league launched in partnership with the PGA Tour. Meanwhile, Alexis too has invested a massive sum into the league.
