She has been away from the tour for a while now. Nonetheless, she is busy with her business ventures and was occupied attending various events for the movie ‘King Richard’.

Serena Williams speaks about her passion for investing

Speaking about her other passion than tennis, Serena expressed in the video, “The power of equity is that you’re doing this not only for someone else but you’re also doing it for yourself. I absolutely love investing. I always say there’s two things I’m passionate about in life. I mean, obviously outside of my daughter, but one of them is Serena Ventures and I think you can pretty much guess the other one I’m passionate about.”
