“Nuts”: Serena Williams’ Daughter Olympia Gives Advice to Students at University of Virginia’s Convocation Ceremony

Apart from being the husband of Serena Williams, Alexis Ohanian is a successful businessman. He too loves to do fun with his daughter Olympia just like Serena and often engages her in a funny conversation. A similar thing happened recently as the two were preparing themselves before giving a speech.

Alexis Ohanian had to give a speech at the convocation ceremony of the University of Virginia. Interestingly, before that, he asked his daughter Olympia a question. He enquired the 3-year-old that what piece of advice she would have given to the students of the University of Virginia. Interestingly, Olympia came up with a really nasty response.

“Nuts,” said an innocent Olympia pointing towards them. It was a really funny moment and even Alexis couldn’t stop himself from laughing.

“Eat your nuts. They are great for fiber and protein… Hear that class of 2021, eat well,” said Alexis- completing Olympia’s sentence.

Olympia even gave a nut to his father and then started laughing as well. Surprisingly, she even said ‘Waahuwa’ when her father asked her to say so.

Will Serena Williams be able to win a Grand Slam in front of her daughter?

Serena Williams last won a major back in 2017- before the birth of her daughter Olympia. After that, she has played 4 Grand Slam finals but has failed to win a single one.

Williams made a comeback after almost 3 months at the Italian Open 2021. However, she hasn’t been that great on clay lately and lost two of her last three games on the surface. She’ll now be heading to Paris for the French Open 2021– a major that she last won in 2015.

Even though she is not in the best of her form, fans saw that Serena can compete even at the age of 39. She managed to reach the semis of the Australian Open 2021 and knocked out some of the top-seeded players there.

It’ll be intriguing to see how Serena plays at Roland Garros 2021. Although she is not that dominating on clay, fans still have huge expectations from her. If she manages to conquer Paris this year, she’ll not just equal Margaret Court’s Grand Slam tally of 24, but it’ll be her first Grand Slam title in front of her daughter. Will Serena be able to beat the odds and lift her fourth French Open title in 2021?
