GIRL POWER: SERENA WINS ROUND OF 1 OF FRENCH OPEN
It appears Serena Williams was gunning for a superhero look as she claimed a major win in a dashing black catsuit.
Serena Williams made her return to Roland Garros on Tuesday since giving birth to her daughter in September, but it wasn’t just her tennis that got people talking, it was her black, skintight catsuit which she said she wore for all mums around the world.
Serena spoke to reporters after clearing her first hurdle with a somewhat taxing 7-6 (4), 6-4 victory over Kristyna Pliskova of the Czech Republic, she said “It feels like this suit represents all the women that have been through a lot mentally, physically with their body to come back and have confidence and to believe in themselves,”
Serena is currently ranked 453rd on the tour while Pliskova is 70th in the world. This follows the 23-time grand slam title holder sitting out the past year due to pregnancy and maternity leave.
Among those cheering her in the crowd were her husband Alexis Ohanian, mother Oracene Price, sister Isha Price, and agent Jill Smoller.
