The Lyon Open and the Geneva Open are over and the French Open 2021 is now just around the corner. However, with the tournament being delayed by a week due to the coronavirus pandemic, players and fans alike are currently watching some really amazing tennis at the Ultimate Tennis Showdown. Interestingly, former World No.1 Serena Williams is also there- spectating the event just like a fan.
In one of the matches at the Ultimate Tennis Showdown, former World No.3 Grigor Dimitrov was playing against Christian Garin. Interestingly, along with Serena, her daughter Olympia was also watching the match intensely.

The 3-year-old Olympia even applauded Dimitrov when he hit a powerful one-handed backhand winner against Garin. It is evident that the junior Williams has got an understanding of the sport by now and knows about the different shots.
Williams was there to support her long-time friend Dimitrov. The two often hit the net together and just love to pull the leg of each other off the court.
Will Serena Williams be able to win the French Open 2021?
After having a poor clay-court season so far, Serena will head to Paris now for the French Open 2021. She has a 1-2 win-loss record on clay this season and is surely not in form at the moment.

However, there have been times when Serena has come out of the jaws of defeat and has beaten the odds in the past. She recently managed to reach the semis of the Australian Open 2021 where Naomi Osaka, unfortunately, thrashed her in straight sets.
