However, Olympia’s full focus was seemingly on the book as she thought the girl in the storybook was herself. “That’s me,” Olympia said. To which Serena replied, “That’s not, no that’s not you.”
While Olympia stood her ground that it was her story, the 41-year-old quickly changed the subject. “Tell me about your day. We at the salon girl. I want to hear all about your day,” Serena said.

Why Serena Won’t bring Olympia to her matches?
Over the years, we have known Serena as a fierce competitor on the court. Even if it was her sister, Venus, Serena would give her best, whenever they faced each other on the court. While we believe Serena is a superhuman on the court, she is a caring mother too. Apart from all the emotions and worries while at play, the most concerned she remained was for her daughter, Olympia.
