Tennis | Wednesday | 22nd July, 2020

Serena Williams and her two-year old Alexis Olympia Ohanian Jr. are officially co-owners of a new Los Angeles–based women’s football team called Angel City.

Olympia, who keeps appearing in her mother’s social media accounts, becomes the youngest person to own a Pro Soccer team. Williams and her daughter joined a slew of celebrity co-owners including former US Women’s National Team players, YouTubers, and venture capitalists, amongst others.

The team follows a fan-driven demand for not just a women’s team in the region but also a team founded by powerful and influential women within the sports, tech, and media industries.

Hollywood mainstays Jessica Chastain, Jennifer Garner, Eva Longoria, and Uzo Aduba are the other members of its founding investor group.
