Serena Williams’ daughter Alexis claps for both her mom AND aunt Venus during their tennis match

Both her mother and her aunt happen to be two of the world’s greatest female tennis players.

And Alexis Olympia couldn’t decide which family member to support on Thursday, with the one-year-old applauding both mom Serena Williams and aunt Venus Williams as they competed in an exhibition match in Abu Dhabi.

In the Instagram video, the adorable little girl sat in dad Alexis Ohanian’s lap while closely watching the match.

The daughter of the 23-time grand slam singles champion was perched upon her tech entrepreneur dad’s knee in a tartan dress as she keenly watched the match unfold.

The tiny tot watched the ball go back and forth – and clapped indiscriminately as both her mom and aunt traded points.

Meanwhile Alexis Sr. beamed proudly.

And earlier this week, Serena welcomed the extra protection afforded to new mothers when they return to the WTA Tour after giving birth.

A player returning after pregnancy will be able to use their previous ranking to enter 12 tournaments over the space of a three-year period.

The updated rule, which was announced earlier this month and will come into effect next season, also ensures that those players will not face a seeded player in the first round.

Williams returned to action in February this year after giving birth to daughter Alexis Olympia in September 2017 and her ranking had plummeted to 451, which meant she was not seeded at the French Open.

The Michigan born athlete, speaking in Abu Dhabi ahead of an exhibition event, said in quotes published by BBC Sport: ‘I think it’s great.

‘Women that are younger can go out there and have kids and not have to worry about it, and not have to wait until the twilight of their years to have children, and I think it’s a really great rule.

‘I think having gone through the experience myself really opened my eyes. Would have I done it sooner had there been different rule changes? I don’t know.

‘But now there is an opportunity, people don’t have to ask that question.’
